🔥 PyroTech at NC FIRST Advocacy Day! 🏛️

Big day for Team PyroTech! We pulled up to the NC Legislature for FIRST Advocacy Day! Our mission? Talk to lawmakers about securing funding for FIRST programs so more students across NC can dive into hands-on STEM, build career-ready skills, and level up through FRC.

Big thanks to Reps. Ball, G. Brown, Cervania, Crawford, Dahle, Jeffers, Johnson-Hostler, A. Jones, Liu, von Haefen & Senators Adcock, Batch, Murdock for hearing us out!

FIRST isn’t just about robots—it’s about skills, teamwork & the future.💡⚙️

Celebrate our local artists and makers at the Art, Maker and More Faire hosted by this upcoming Sunday (6/23) from 1 to 4 PM!! All funds will help the forge find a new tech space to call home!

Team PyroTech has qualified for the 2024 FRC NC State Championship, and we need your support to be able to compete!

During our past 2 competitions, we were excited to earn the Quality Award and the Industrial Design Award, sponsored by General Motors. These awards recognize our team’s extraordinary efforts and hard work during the season so far in designing, fabricating, and competing with a $16,000 robot. Through these awards and our robot, we are now qualified to compete at the state qualifiers!

We need to raise $4,000 to be able to attend the competition, and $6000 for the additional expenses we pay for as a team. Any amount is appreciated and will make a difference.Your donation will help cover registration, robot parts, supplies, travel, and other expenses. Link to donate is also in the bio!

We once again to Turner Creek Elementary for their STEM night, and this time we brought along our friends from FLL Artsy Ants! We had a blast making buttons, driving ember, and showcasing our new 2024 robot!
