📰🤖 RGV Robotics Newsletter — Volume 2 is here! We’re back with Volume 2 of our newsletter, bringing you more updates from the RGV of FTC, robotics, and STEM 🐝💙 We’re excited to continue highlighting the teams, events, and people making an impact in our robotics community!

Sorry for the lateness 🙏We loved getting to meet so many people, show off our robot, and share what our team and FIRST Tech Challenge are all about. We hope that by bringing robotics to our community, we can inspire more people to explore STEM!💙🐝

We had an awesome time visiting the Boys & Girls Club and introducing students to FIRST Tech Challenge! 🤖💙 Through our robot demonstration and hands-on STEM activities, we got to share what FTC is all about and hopefully inspire the next generation. 🚀🐝

We had an amazing time attending the FTC Conference hosted by McHi Robotics! We got to learn from incredible people and were shown valuable lessons. We’re incredibly grateful for everyone who shared their knowledge and made this experience so memorable! #stem #robotics #learning

Introducing our new newsletter! 📰🤖 We’ll be covering robotics, FTC, and STEM news from across the Rio Grande Valley keeping us updated! Our goal is to help spread the word even further and connect the RGV! #rgv #stem #firsttechchallenge #newsletter

Brownsville SPACEFEST was an unforgettable way to kick off the new season! 🚀🤖 We met so many amazing teams and people, learned a ton, and were inspired by everyone who took the time to share their knowledge and experiences with us! #robotics #space #firsttechchallenge

Kickoff is here! 🤖⚙️ Yesterday we were planning for our brand-new season filled with new challenges, goals, and plenty of memories to make. We’re excited to see what this year brings and ready to make it a season to remember! 🏆🔥 #Robotics #FIRST #FTC

Kicking off the season strong! 🤖⚙️ Our first team meeting focused on reviewing plans, setting goals, and getting ready for an amazing season ahead. We’re excited for the challenges, the growth, and everything this season has in store! #FIRSTinTexas #FIRSTTechChallenge #robotics

Memorial Robotics had a blast at Tech Wars 2025 where we had competed in Battle Bots, presented new ideas about a new robot, and placing 1st 2nd and 3rd in Rocketry! GO MIGHTY MUSTANGS 🎉🎉🐴 #tech #robot #competition #mcallenisd #fun

Wednesday we were able to attend the STEM Nation event where we heard speakers discussed their careers and explain how STEM is used in their jobs. Mustang Megabytes were grateful for this event and we hope everyone had a great time 🎉🎉 #stemnation #innovate #dream #stem #learn

Last Thursday we and our sister team Osiris had the chance to help our English teacher Mrs. Vidal with class periods facing the challenge of making a living book report out of the Robotic Hummingbird kits. Memorial Robotics had a great time teaching and even outreaching about FTC

Saturday we were working/practicing with the Hummingbird Bit Robotic Kits because we have the privilege to guide students with projects involving these kits. We hope to be a great deal of help!

Our builder challenged team #22837’s robot to a game of Rock Paper Scissors and almost won….(he claims)

We had so much fun meeting a lot of teams at the area championship competition. Mustang Megabytes with @osirisrobot were helping volunteer and helping the teams. We wish everyone good luck!
