I would normally not ask for a favor like this. However, we are a homeschool group that is competing with large public high school groups that already have more access to funding than we do. We rely on grants like this to make our team possible. We would truly appreciate the votes! This does not cost you any money! We are not asking for cash. Just a simple click of the mouse. Thank you all so very much!!

Metmom- would you consider pinging this to the ARTH ping list if you think it’s worthy?

Help this Robotics team win a prize from Rockwell Automotion by voting for their project. Rockwell is a Wisconsin company, even though these kids are from Missouri.

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.

Hi! I wanted to update all of you that helped vote for our team last fall. Although we didn’t win this grant, we did make it to the Championship in St. Louis! We just finished the KC Regionals and our little homeschool team won the Regional Chairman’s Award, the most prestigious award at FIRST. It honors the team that best represents a model for other teams to emulate and best embodies the purpose and goals of FIRST. Here is a link to more information on the The Hero Project that has their video at the bottom and an update on the latest recipient of our team’s help. http://teamupnext.com/the-hero-project/ Thank you all so much for your support!
