Help Us Make the Starstruck Showdown Shine!

The Starstruck Showdown @ Grassy Lake would not be possible without an amazing team of volunteers!

We need help with judging, refereeing, inspections, field reset, team check-in, concessions, and other event-day activities. No previous robotics experience is required for many roles, and training and instructions will be provided.

Whether you can help for the entire event or part of the day, your support will help us create a fun, welcoming, and memorable experience for our students and families.

If you are interested in volunteering, please contact the Event Partner through the event page.
