General Info
Welcome to the 2027 Colorado Middle School State Championships!
We will be hosting 42 teams from around Colorado. We will have our DJ up on stage again this year, so we know the kids can have some fun!
Upon arrival to Altona, come in the front door for check in, and then head to the gyms to the pits to deliver your robot and materials. There will be abundant signs to the pits.
Lanyards - Judges, event volunteers, coaches, and team members will have lanyards to get into the pits. Lanyards will be picked up at check in.
Judging - In person judging / Digital Notebooks - Notebooks are due 2/21/27 (Monday) at midnight.
Team Check In - Team Check In will be at the front entrance of the school - At least 1 member of the team must be present. Event swag will be given at the check in table.
Parking - We have 2 main parking lots, both of which are fine to park in. Teams are encouraged to park in the NW lot near the basketball courts to minimize the distance to the pits.
Food - We will have the Georgia Boys BBQ food truck here along with a couple of other food truck options. We will have a coffee cart at the venue for those that need a wake up. Concessions will be available all day.
Spectators - Spectator seating will be up above the fields in the balconies as well as seating around the main competition fields. We will have a movie on in the library for little kiddos and our library is a quiet place for parents who need to get work done. No spectators will be allowed in the pits or the compeition area.
Drone Show - We are planning to bring back the drone show for the state championships! The animations the drones perform are specific to our event, the drone team at the IC is utterly amazing!
