Our Name
Our team name was inspired by a book written by Phil Vischer, 47 Beavers on the Big, Blue Sea. The book focuses on teamwork and collaboration, which are also the core values of our team. We want to utilize everyone’s strengths in order to create the best robotic results and to promote an extraordinary learning environment.
