Denfeld Nation Automation (DNA) Road To Worlds Update

Greetings, 

DNA was part of a special group of teams this year. They worked hard this entire season and received some very exciting news this Monday morning: DNA is going to Worlds! The whole team was thrilled to learn the news that their efforts had earned them a spot in the FIRST World Championship. The entire team has been working so hard to achieve this goal and their spectacular performance at the Seven Rivers Regional a couple of weeks ago has secured them a spot. 

DNA is now working hard to raise the money that is necessary for the team to go all the way to Houston, Texas, for the world championship. The total cost will end up being around $45,000, so the team has a lot to raise before April 14th, 2025. If you are interested in helping the team meet their goal then the link to the donation site is down below. 

DNA has qualified not only for the world championship, but also for the MSHSL State Championship. The students have been working extremely hard this season to create a championship-worthy robot that has been doing amazingly throughout this season. DNA is still working hard to keep improving their robot while they prepare for these upcoming events over the next couple of weeks.
