Facilities
We have awesome school support and building resources. We have full access to our tech center (really big room where we can assemble the parts we make, store stuff, practice, etc.), machine shop (to machine our parts...), wood shop (another big room, useful for builing the crate/painting stuff) and auto shop (to practice in when the tech center ceiling isn't tall enough!). We make most of our parts in our machine shop, and if we can't machine a part in our machine shop at the high school, we have access to a machine shop over at Fox Valley Technical College (another sponsor) Last year we had a student that knew how to weld but he graduated so everything is 'mechanically connected' this year. We also have a graphic arts rom where we can screen print our own shirts, make stickers, flyers, etc. Our school district generously donates money to us, also. Our team has been really lucky to have these facilities available for us to use. We are grateful to all of our sponsors, and especially grateful to the AASD (Appleton Area School District) and FVTC (Fox Valley Technical College) for use of the facilities!!
