That’s it. That’s all. It’s a wrap!
Our 2026 competition season has come to an end and we are so grateful for the cherished memories and incredible journey we experienced! Here are just a few highlights:
🤖 We learned so much from each other, our coaches, and our mentors. Thank you so much!
🏴☠️ Our 2026 robot, “The Boulder” and our little STEM-bot “Sparkie” continuously improved throughout the season.
🤖 578-ers persevered through all the tough times during our grueling season. Way to go!
🏴☠️ We networked, learned from other teams, made new friends, and grew as a team.
🤖 Our newest and fun program, Rai-ducks for Gracious Professionalism, was a huge hit! We loved to witness all the acts of GP during our tournaments. ❤️
🏴☠️ We are so grateful for our amazing community and sponsors for their unwavering support - Fairport Central School District, Microsoft, Bausch + Lomb, L3Harris Technologies, Fairport Merchants Association, Fairport Rotary Club, and Booz Allen Hamilton.
