FRC Team 2181 "GEARS" is a high school robotics team from Blaine High School in Blaine, MN. We give students grades 9-12 the opportunity to experience real world engineering and business problems through competitive robotics competitions like the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC). Each October to December, our team builds multiple scaled down robots to train and learn in a competition called MinneTrials. Then, in January to March, our team builds one brand new robot together to compete against other teams from around the world in the FIRST Robotics Competition.
