This season had a little bit of everything. We announced YAMS and YAMG with YASS at Kickoff. We had a rough go of it in San Antonio. We fought back at Space City with help from a team we’d never met before this year. We closed out the season presenting on the biggest stage in FRC. None of it would have happened without the people who backed us before any of it started.

Thank you to the Gene Haas Foundation, Honeywell, and Pine Lake Vistas for the financial support that let us build a competitive robot and keep our outreach programs running all year. Thank you to FRC Tees for keeping our team looking like a team. And thank you to Yet Another Software Suite — not just as a sponsor, but as a genuine technical partner and a project we’re proud to have helped found.

We want to say something extra to Keystone School. Every season, Keystone matches our fundraising dollar for dollar. Keystone gives us a place to build, a community that shows up to our events, and the kind of everyday support that doesn’t make headlines but is the entire reason a small team like ours gets to exist at all. We would not be Camber Robotics without Keystone, full stop.

We raised over $10,000 again this year. We mentored a new FTC team. We ran our second summer camp. We had a season that didn’t go the way we drew it up, and we’re still standing here more excited for next year than we’ve ever been. Thank you for believing in us enough to make all of it possible.
