Our involvement at FIRST robotics competition was an memorable experience. We developed friendships between other teams, improved our strategies, and exceeded our goals! Team #6167 was recognized as Rookie All-Star at the Palmetto Regional. The work that we put into our robot was long and tiresome, but the success was sweet! And THANK- YOU to our Sponsors and Mentors, we could not do this without their help and inspiration!
Look out for the CB Bearbots at St. Louis , MO World Championship! We plan to bring home more accomplishments in the near future.
