Hello everyone. I'm Cassie from The Demons, Team 858 in Wyoming, Michigan. We've been competing in FRC since 2002 and we've been going strong every since. We've gone to championships in Atlanta, gotten first place at a district event in Lansing, Michigan, and overall been a strong competitor as both a defensive and offensive bot. Our team is small, but close. We're not just a team. We're a family. Unfortunetly, the woods and metals shop teacher at our school retired last year. He was also our head mentor. As of last year, we were under the impression that we weren't HAVING a team this year. Since then, I've managed to scrape together about 20 members total. We have 2 professional engineers and that's it. We have no teachers helping and no school support what so ever. We have a handful of sponsors and $300 in our bank account for the year. We are working with minimal help from team members' parents as well. What we're looking for is help. Any help at all would be fantastic. We'll take what we can get in order to compete this year. We'll be competing this year so long as we can get the money to build a robot. Unfortunetly, without more help and support, this may be the final year for The Demons. Please email our team at
Demons858@aol.com if you can help us in any way or know of anyone interested in helping us. Thank you.
