The purpose of the club is to offer opportunities for high school students to serve in a philanthropic club and participate in world class STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) competitions. Students learn and practice a range of skills including applied mathematics, applied physics, computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), CNC machinery, basic operation of metal mills and lathes, electronics, applied computer science using C++, Java, and LabView programming languages, elementary networking, mechanical design and assembly, electrical design and assembly, pneumatic design and assembly, quality assurance, and safety.

In addition to the robot build and community service, the robotics team members also have opportunities to express and develop a wide variety of skills: website design, audio-visual presentations, essays, product design, graphic arts and design, animation, finance, team leadership, project management, logistics, strategic game play, advertising, marketing, public relations, and fundraising.

The end goal is to promote the students (and parents) selection of rewarding STEM-related education and career choices by experiencing them in a real-world application.

Why we need sponsors…

The competitions are expensive and most are out of town. There are significant entry fees, travel and per diem costs for the students, teachers, and mentors. We want to make sure that every student who wishes to can participate, so we prioritize the funds for scholarships as needed. The remainder of the monies pays for building robots, tools and supplies, outreach to other schools, and the regional competition expenses.

Sponsorship takes the form of supplies, discounts, metal fabrication facilities and/or assistance and/or cash. For example we have sponsors who cut, punch and bend sheet metal for the team, sponsors that provide materials for the frame, sponsors who provide meals or meal discounts, sponsors who provide time and expertise and sponsors who contribute cash. All the generous contributions are primarily philanthropic but we offer opportunities for advertisement.

“Skynet” Level Sponsorship – $10,000 each

This “platinum” level sponsorship is a true partnership with the team. The name of the sponsor is incorporated into the team name. Why does this matter? Because the team’s official name is announced before every match (as many as 25 times) at each regional event. A platinum level sponsor’s logo is centered on the web site, the team’s trailer, all banners, all tee shirts and on the robot. The students wear the tee shirts at competitions and at school, kinda like football jerseys. The banners are displayed at school, at public events in the Rockwall area, at the pit area of the regionals competitions and in the stands during our matches. The students typically give presentations on-site for platinum sponsors.
