News:

• A message from John Cohn: A group of us from UVM and Generator have received a generous grant from FIRST Robotics to help spread First Tech Challenge (FTC) Robotics programs across the state of Vermont. FTC is a fun and proven program that develops STEM skills like programming, electro-mechanical design and teamwork to high school and tech center students. With this grant, we will be able to cover most of the equipment, training, and registration fees for new FTC Teams. This year's FTC challenge will allow for remote competitions so that social/physical distancing can be maintained while helping to build STEM skills during these challenging times.
  At 7 PM on Thursday July 23rd we are hosting a 'virtual townhall' to discuss the FTC program. If interested, register here.
