The FIRST Robotics Season is underway, and when you talk with students and coaches who are involved with their FIRST Robotics Program, you often hear how robotics is an activity that sets them up for success post high school. During the Your Live Event Robotics Show, R&J News caught up with Alec and Christopher of Thunder Robotics in Hatton, who talked about what robotics has taught them over the years, and how it will continue to inspire them post high school. 

Thunder Robotics Mentor Mike Voglewede has been coaching robotics for over twenty years, and he says there is no shortage of stories like this, involving students in robotics. 

You can listen to the full interview with Christopher, Alec and Mike during the Your Live Event Robotics Show, which airs Saturdays on the Your Live Event YouTube Page.
