About the Team
We are 15294A, the Red Eaglebots team from Woodview Elementary. We are from a small Amish town in Indiana called Nappanee. We all agree that robotics has changed our lives. We did a summer camp in July, started practicing in October, have gone to 4 tournaments, and have won 9 awards. Our team consists of 6 girls (Peyton, Shelby, Kelsey, Ella, Jillian, and Avery) and 3 boys (Keaton, Eric, and Elijah). We are all in 4th or 5th grade and absolutely love robotics practices and competitions.
About this Season
After a summer camp in July, our team had our first competition in November after we started the official season. It was hectic getting prepared, but we have won several awards (3 Teamwork Champion Awards, 3 Skills Champion Awards, 2 Excellence Awards, and 1 Design award) from the last 4 regional competitions combined. We are currently ranked 12th in Indiana. Our program has won 8 straight State Excellence Awards. We're excited for the State Championship!!
About Team Sponsor
We have many sponsors, but we are super thankful for TechPoint Foundation for Youth as they are the ones who got us started with their grant. We are also thankful for Bearcat, Challenger Door, Jerry Huff Construction, NTA Inc, Metcalf Payne and Bell, ProIT Solutions, ATC, Topping Dental, The Papers, and Day Fluid Power for providing us with the funds to get team jerseys, competition payments, State entry fees, and hopefully Worlds. Without them, our amazing program wouldn't be possible.
