Clark Magnet Robotics Team 696: Overview of Build Season, Competitions, and Fundraising

The Clark Magnet Robotics Team 696, known as the Circuit Breakers, is dedicated to inspiring students through robotics under the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) program. During the Build Season spanning six weeks, our team invests over 40 hours per week to design and construct our robot, optimizing it for competitions. This year, our robot excels in scoring and collaboration with others. We also focus on fundraising efforts, including restaurant nights and local sponsorships, to support our program and future activities.
