The Manoogian Beach Bums Robotics (7692) was founded in 2018 to provide Manoogian students with the opportunity to be a part of a robotics team and gain valuable experience in the STEM field, leadership, and creative thinking. Our goal each year is not to simply build a functioning robot, but to learn crucial life skills such as teamwork, perseverance, and open-mindedness. As we progress in the season, team members gain valuable knowledge they would not be able to gain anywhere else. We discover new ideas, use creativity and persistence, have an impact on our community, embrace our differences, work together, and most importantly, have fun.
