Need us for an event? Reach out via our email (ccr-contact@mtu.edu) to talk robotics volunteering! We have experienced members that just understand FIRST Robotics, and serve in key roles such as Referee, FTAA, Scorekeeper, Head Referee, Queuer, CSA, and general technical assistance!
We Mentor arrow_downward
Mentoring is just something that we get! We have several experienced mentors for FRC and FTC teams, and are excited to collaberate with any team that needs assistance. We frequently mentor teams around the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and have a solid impact across teams and competitions.
Our mentors are active students at Michigan Tech, and are learning how to effectively lead and engage others. Students who mentor with Copper Country Robotics are paired up with a team that fits their schedule!
Need an additional mentor for your team? Email (ccr-contact@mtu.edu) and we can get you set up with a virtual / in-person mentor!

Every November, we host the FRC Bootcamp on Michigan Tech's campus, where new and experienced FRC teams arrive to learn about a multitude of different topics hosted by members of Copper Country Robotics. Every year, we've gotten very positive feedback about the sessions, volunteers, and activities!
