We are Team 7588 Catlateral Damage!

Team Overview

Catlateral Damage, from Burnsville, Minnesota, is a ninth-year team consisting of four students; three boys and one girl. We have a second-year seventh grader, a fourth-year junior, a fifth-year junior, and a fourth-year senior.

​Mission Statement

Our team strives to make ourselves and our community better. We do our best to get out into the community to demonstrate and explain to others what we do at robotics. We are set on getting out into the community, whether by demonstrations at elementary schools, or attending events that are put on by different companies. We strive to learn the aspects of STEM and involve our community. We hope to get other students into STEM, FIRST Robotics, or thinking about signing up for a class in engineering in the future.

Robotics is…

Programming, Engineering, Building, Teamwork, Social Media, Videography, Scholarships, Challenging, Learning, Interviews/Presentations, Electrical Engineering, Photography, CAD/3D Printing, Design, Public Speaking, Research, Inventing, Leadership, Website Design, Business/Strategic Plan Writing, Friendship, FUN!

Robotics is NOT just about a Robot!
