About FRC
Mission statement
Team Pronto strives to organize a robotics club with the objective of designing and building a robot for the FIRST® Robotics Competition. In addition, the team aims to instill the core values of FIRST and to ensure each individual receives the best experience possible by recognizing and appreciating the value of that individual in whatever capacity served.
A synopsis of sorts
A group of dedicated students in Shoreline, WA that band together to build a beautiful, working robot.
Every year, January looms closer and closer towards the horizon. Ever since the beginning of the school year, the hardworking adolescents prepare for the inevitable. They recruit, train, and prepare for the impending cataclysmic event of wonder and utter shock. And when January hits... everything changes when the fire nation attacks.
No, wait, wrong one. The kick off of the FIRST Robotics Competition! (The thing Team Pronto 3070 participates in, if you were wondering.) It is at this kickoff time that every team in the world discovers what their robot's task is for the year. In a 6-week period, each team must plan and construct their entire robot. Therefore, the build season consists of sleep-deprivation and perseverance. However, it also consists of intense focus, everlasting team bonds, memories filled with the feeling of grease and the humming of the drill, and an attachment to an inanimate object that's been worked on for hundreds of hours.
Beyond the 6-week build period, the team goes on to perform during competitions, and regardless of how well we do (we're always awesome, in case you didn't know), we have what may very well be the time of our lives. Our team spirit is extreme, our drive is unstoppable, and our ability to work quickly to fix glitches is impeccable. Of course, this is through the eyes of a team member, but technically, you don't have a more credible source.
Team Pronto is a group of dedicated students in Shoreline, WA that band together to build a beautiful, working robot. But we also build a beautiful, working team that would care enough about each other to spend around 300 hours with each other.
