2026 SEASON FUNDRAISER

MegaHurtz Robotics

High School Robotics Team for Buchanan and neighboring communities.
MegaHurtz Robotics through a partnership with Lake Michigan STEAMWORKS is an independently funded robotics team for students in Buchanan and surrounding communities. Our mentors and volunteers freely give their time and expertise to support and instruct our students.

SEASON EXPENSES HAVE GONE UP. AGAIN.

FIRST, the international organization we participate through has raised their prices for a second time in less than five years. The season registration fee for our team is now $6300. The cost of materials has also gone up, shipping costs are up over 30% and we are uncertain if the items we need will even be available this season.

WE NEED YOUR HELP TO MAKE OUR 2025 SEASON POSSIBLE

$20,000 A YEAR

Each season we apply for public and private grants, but our major funding source is sponsorships from our community! Please consider supporting tomorrow’s leaders in STEAM by sponsoring us today!
