Community Outreach

STEAM in our Community

FIRST Team 1305 is made possible thanks to the incredible support from our community. In return, we embrace every chance to make a positive impact. Since 2020, we've organized 222 outreach events, dedicated to sharing the joys of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics (STEAM). 

At FIRST Team 1305, our mission is to promote the wonders of STEAM in our community and beyond!

FIRST Team 1305 is the North Bay District Event Impact Award Winner
(an award for the team who makes a significant difference in their community)
