Join 4-H and Makers Mill for a fun introductory robotics program where youth will build robots from either LEGO or VEX IQ kits! 

Builders will deepen their problem solving, coding, and communication skills by working in small teams to build a basic robot that can navigate technical challenges. 
This program will introduce youth to the fundamentals of robotics and end with a demonstration of their robots to families. The last meeting will conclude with a discussion about forming a community FIRST LEGO League Robotics Team.

Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity to explore the world of robotics!
