Our Mission
While we build robots to compete in the FIRST Tech Challenge, our mission is to inspire and empower the next generation of innovators, engineers, and leaders within our community through robotics.
While we build robots to compete in the FIRST Tech Challenge, our mission is to inspire and empower the next generation of innovators, engineers, and leaders within our community through robotics.
We introduce students to robotics and engineering through hands-on demonstrations, workshops, and community events.
We mentor younger FIRST teams and students by sharing technical knowledge, leadership skills, and competition experience.
We connect robotics to our local community by hosting events, partnering with organizations, and promoting STEM beyond schools.
We work to make STEM accessible and welcoming by creating inclusive programs and supporting underrepresented students.
Our Cre8 Cares program focuses on providing support and resources to underrepresented students in STEM fields, through food drives, mental health awareness, and interviews with people.
We are one of the few teams in Iowa that offers a program of this tier. We work with rising students ready for the next step in their STEM journey. Our program currently hosts 4 successful interns.
Coming summer 2026, our summer camp program aims to provide an immersive STEM experience for young learners, while providing a transition to our internship program.
