"There are two main things that prevent people from starting new activities; cost and age. Most people assume that in order to be good at something, you have to start in elementary school, like with gymnastics or soccer. Luckily, that's not true with robotics, in fact, as long as you have a keen and eager mind, you can start at any time. The Middle School Robotics Event is a perfect example of that, actually! Imagine that. One early Saturday morning a year, swarms of middle schoolers converge on the Firestone High School gymnasium, herded by Project Lead the way Students and teachers." Our VEX robotics team, 7316X, created the Middle School Robotics competition to bring out students from middle schools in Akron, Ohio to get them interested in STEM and robotics that they can participate in throughout high school. We changed the lives of the future generation, and hope to continue to do so throughout the rest of our careers.
