Robots for a Cure – MARC is Going PINK!
Steve Ketron of Team 1528, head mentor for Monroe Trojan Robotics and host of the MARC event, has teamed up with Team 3098 to turn MARC Pink!
Team 3098, The Captains from Waterford Kettering High School, recently had one of their teacher’s wives diagnosed with breast cancer. Each year, MARC picks a charity or organization to help. After a few emails and phone calls, Steve Ketron and MARC has gratefully selected to help 3098 and “Rally for Meghan Malley!” Please help and Rally with us! All the proceeds raised will go directly to Mike and Meghan Malley along with their Susan G Koman Race for the Cure 3-Day team. We’re calling all teams that are going to be at MARC to rally with us and help beat this thing!
Help us in the following ways and Rally with Team 3098 for Meghan Malley!- Mentor tournament – 24 team tournament - $25, teams can pre-register with Steve Ketron : ketron@monroe.k12.mi.us
- Silent Auction – Please help us out and bring an item for the auction.
- Team T-Shirts – Please bring a team t-shirt to donate for the silent auction.
- MARC Event shirts – official game shirt sales (that are going to be pink by the way)
- Team 3098 : Robots for a Cure bracelets for $1
Other items we want teams to do for the event is: - We plan on bringing a large card/sign for Meghan and her husband Mike Malleys for all the teams to sign
- Survivor/honor night on Friday – If you are one, know of a family member, friend, etc. that has survived any type of cancer, we want to honor them after qualifying matches on Friday night.
- Have your team write messages of hope and encouragement on your team t-shirt, 3098 will then deliver them to Meghan.
If you have any other ideas or anything to add, please let us know. You can contact our lead mentor, Steve Smitka, at
