Our projects had a great year in 2025/2026. We are working to catch up and publish the details here. With the loss of our sponsor's facility in June 2026, we are not sure of the location of our programs in the fall of 2026. We intent to recruit up to 20 new members in September 2026.

We entered two teams in the 2025/2026 FIRST Tech Challenge Team 6417, Blu Cru, and Team 24158, Green Gang. We had a great year in 2025. We did well in qualifying tournaments and the Chesapeake Championship. In April, Blu Cru went to the World Championship in Houston.

We had two teams in the American Rocketry Challenge for 2025. We built, and flew rockets following the ARC 2026 rules. Unfortunately, we didn't qualify for the national finals. In June 2025 we flew a large high-powered rocket in the Mojave desert, California. In May 2026 we will fly a high-powered rocket at the Midwest High Power Rocketry Competition at Minneapolis, MN

Our Botball Team 160 competed in the Fall 2025 program and the Spring 2026 program. We built and tested autonomous robots following the 2026 rules.

We competed in the 2025 Uncrewed Aircraft System (UAS4STEM) competition. In August 2025, we travelled to the national competition at the AirVenture Fly-In festival at Oshkosh WI. We won first place in the advanced division. We are now working on the 2026 program. We qualified for the natiional competition in July 2026.
