KARE-11 Spotlights Herobotics

One of the most often heard phrases today is "If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything!" This is certainly true for Team 2500-Herobotics, a Minnesota FIRST team now beginning its third year out of Patrick Henry High School, Minneapolis. In spring 2009, the team won the coveted “Engineering Inspiration Award” at the FIRST Minnesota 10,000 Lakes Regional. That earned the team the chance to compete at the Atlanta Championships. But, even more than that, this Minneapolis team eagerly reaches out to the community, especially to younger students. Their message: that one doesn’t have to be an engineer or know how to build the robot in be a vital part of this team. Click here to catch Herobotics during their recent appearance on KARE-11.
