Combat Robotics Orientation

Build tough. Test hard. Learn fast.

Interested in robots that compete head-to-head? Join us for a Combat Robotics Orientation at Monumental Impact to learn how participants can design, build, test, repair, and improve small competitive robots in a hands-on makerspace environment.

This information session is open to guests, families, students, adults, mentors, volunteers, and community members who want to learn more about Combat Robotics and how to get involved.

About Monumental Impact

Monumental Impact is a community makerspace in Palmer Lake where high school students, college students, adults, and seniors can explore technology, engineering, entrepreneurship, art, robotics, and hands-on making.

Combat Robotics gives participants a practical way to build confidence, learn engineering skills, and experience what happens when design decisions meet the real world. Sometimes the robot wins. Sometimes the lesson wins. Either way, we learn.

Guests Are Welcome

You do not need to be a current member to attend this orientation. Come ask questions, see what we are building, and learn how to get connected.

Explore. Create. Compete.
