- There's only one week left until the end of the build season! Stay vigilant, Spike!
- Just a reminder: Member photos will be taken on Wednesday, February 15th, so be sure to look your finest!
- There's only a little less than three weeks until our first competition at Hatboro-Horsham High School! Be prepared!
Hopewell Valley's Robotics team, Team 293 (affectionately nicknamed S.P.I.K.E.) was founded eleven years ago and is proud to have been a long-time supporter of the FIRST vision:
-Dean Kamen, FIRST founder
The FIRST Robotics competition challenges teams
from all over to world to build a robot in order to play a game. The rules
change immensely from year to year and are presented each January by a
committee of engineers and other professionals. The catch? We
have six weeks to do it.
Team 293, or SPIKE, participates each year in the FIRST Robotics New Jersey Regional and in a regional in Maryland or Pennsylvania and has generally performed quite well- even achieving first place! On really successful years SPIKE is able join the National competition as well.
Despite being highly competitive and work-oriented, members become friends over the long hours and have tons of fun!
