The VEX Raptors' Sponsors and Supporters
The VEX Robotics Competition is not a cheap sport. Fortunately, there are engineering programs and community organizations that help fund our team and allow us to participate. We thank our sponsors for all they have done for us!
The Michigan State University College of Engineering:
The MSU College of Engineering's K-12 Outreach Program sponsors high school robotics teams around our state. Several years ago, they saw our strong Lego Robotics program and set up their first middle school VEX team at Haslett Middle School. Their contributions started our team up and got us everything we needed to be successful in our first year and build off of our success in later years. Thank you, MSU!

The BerrieHill Research Corporation
The BerrieHill Research Corporation designs and builds antennas, computer electronics, and many other products. As a result, they share many of the engineering values that we use. We would like to give a big thank-you to the BerrieHill Corporation for their contribution!

The Demmer Corporation
The Okemos Culver's
The Culver's on Times Square Road, Okemos, MI contributed sponsorship toward our trip to Anaheim, California for the 2012 and 2013 VEX World Championships. Their contribution made a big difference, so we give a big Thank You to the Okemos Culver's and their owner, Cory, for helping us make the trip!

Haslett Public Schools:
Haslett Public Schools have played a major part in our team from the beginning. Since before our VEX Robotics program was launched, and we were solely a Lego Robotics program, Haslett has given our robotics club places to meet and to store our materials. They have also given most of our team the math, science, and technology education that has been instrumental to us. Without this wonderful school district as a base of operations, our team would not be what it is.

Our Coach, Parents, and Mentors:
Although our parents and mentors are not a major financial base for our team, they have dedicated a lot of time and effort to supporting us. They have been there for us when we've had mechanical issues, and they have patiently taught and helped us with the principles of engineering, professionalism, and teamwork. They definitely deserve recognition for their help to this team.
