At the June 9, 2025 Club meeting meeting Rick Coates reported that he and his wife Lynn ( a member of the District 6330 Passport Club) along with President Kirk and his wife Barb attended the Westminster Wildbots Sponsor appreciation dinner.
Rick related “ It was a wonderful event. The students/team prepared all of the meal (food was delicious) and then Sponsors were given thanks and mementos for their support. The team succeeded in qualifying to go to the provincial level events due to the amount of funding provided by sponsors this year that enabled the team to build their robot with better features and equipment. “ Rick Continued “ Jennifer Levy, their school Teacher Mentor says the team is growing with more students wanting to join the team. Success breads success with the team now up to 40 students. These are students who will no doubt become future engineers and/or computer specialists. This is a great youth program that we support as it features team dynamics, STEM (Science, Technology and Engineering) and collaborative skills development.”
