Welcome! Team 1684 - The Chimeras (ky-mare-uhs) are a competitive robotics team comprised of students from schools in Lapeer, Michigan and area homeschool students ranging from 11 to 18 years old. Students are given approximately six weeks to design, build and perfect a robot to compete in the FIRST competition for the season. However, we are not just building robots. We are shaping students to solve "real world" problems with hands-on experience. Promoting robotics in our community and inspiring students in the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. We are The Chimeras. |
FIRST was founded in 1989 to inspire young people's interest and participation in science and technology. Based in Manchester, NH, the not-for-profit public charity designs accessible, innovative programs that motivate young people to pursue education and career opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math, while building self-confidence, knowledge, and life skills.
