About Us<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are FIRST FTC team 16008, the Armored Artemises. This upcoming season will be our 7th season as a team. We have been the Connecticut state champions 4 times, and we have gone to worlds 3 times. As of last season, we mentored 8 FTC teams, and 7 FLL teams. We also had 10 sponsors. Our team mission is to make STEAM accessible to as many people and communities possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
