Rockwell Automation Supports Patriot Robotics for 2012-2013 season

Rockwell Automation, a long-time Patriot Robotics sponsor, has indicted that it will support the registration fees of all three Patriot Robotics teams for the 2012-2013 season.  Rockwell Automation is a major sponsor of FIRST programs overall and has been faithfully supporting the FLL and FTC robotics programs at Heritage Christian Schools since 2008.

Thank You once again, Rockwell!  We are proud to have you as a part of our team and to wear your logo on our backs and to show it on our robots!

Thrivent Financial Sponsors Patriot Robotics

For the second year in a row, Thrivent Financial has agreed to support the Patriot Robotics Program.  This year, a matching grant of $1,000 will be used to help the program support the two FLL teams and our state champion FTC team, The Supposable Thumbs, as they purchase equipment to prepare for the 2012-2013 competition season.

Supposable Thumbs Compete In FTC World Championship

Thanks to support from sponsors ABB robotics, Rockwell Automation, IEEE of Milwaukee and Linear Graphics, the Supposable Thumbs made the trip to St. Louis this past week to compete with the "Best of the Best" in the FTC World championship.  The Thumbs ran into some technical difficulties all week long and struggled to a disappointing 2-6 finish.  Disppointing not due to the wins and losses, but becuase their robot was awesome, and the technical problems kept them from showing it off for their peers.  The Supposable Thumbs showed intensity and perseverance as they worked to resolve one problem after another throughout the competition and learned many things about robot construction during the week that will make them 'smarter' and 'stronger' for next season. 

Thank you to all our sponsors, parents and Heritage Christian School for making the experience possible.
