[W.A.F.F.L.E.S. Robotics @WAFFLESRobotics]

Kicking off #ONchampsFRC with four matches today and an EI interview. Quals 7, 10, 17 and 26 are when we hit the playing field. Looking forward to a ton of fun in the next few days as we play with and against Ontario’s best. #omgrobots #stemygk #morethanrobots

[Queen's FIRST Robotics Club @QueensFRC]

Congratulations to @WAFFLESRobotics and @ktownmavericks for qualifying for the FIRST Ontario Provincial Championships!!! Best of luck this week to both teams. #omgrobots #ontdcmp

[Queen's FIRST Robotics Club @QueensFRC]

Kingston represent! @ktownmavericks will be competing again this weekend at the #WindsorFRC event. Good luck 7480! #omgrobots #stemygk

[The Rundown @therundowntvo]

The @ktownmavericks are on a mission — to build functioning robots and to boost gender equality in STEM fields. @JeyanTVO watches the Kingston-area robotics team compete in their first competition, and asks about their mandate to ensure their group is at least 50% female. #onted

[Queen's FIRST Robotics Club @QueensFRC]

Congrats to @Team2708 on a successful weekend at #YorkFRC. Your robot and your attire looked slick - no wonder you took home the imagery award. #stemygk #omgrobots

[Queen's FIRST Robotics Club @QueensFRC]

Kingston represent! 🥇

[W.A.F.F.L.E.S. Robotics @WAFFLESRobotics]

What a day. Partnered with @FIRSTTeam1305 and @frc781, we were able to win the event. We were also the recipients of the Engineering Inspiration award! We’re on cloud nine right now. #omgrobots #GeorgianFRC #stemygk

[Queen's FIRST Robotics Club @QueensFRC]

One of our Kingston teams was in the finals this weekend! Congratulations to 4476, job well done. 🥈#omgrobots #durhamfrc

[W.A.F.F.L.E.S. Robotics @WAFFLESRobotics]

We’re walking home proud of ourselves. 7th alliance captain, making it to finals - but that wouldn’t have happened without @frc6867 and @4525FRC (who’s SO well deserving of their Chairman’s Award). That was a heck of a lot of fun! 🥈#DurhamFRC #omgrobots

[Queen's FIRST Robotics Club @QueensFRC]

Two Kingston teams will be competing this weekend! Best of luck to @WAFFLESRobotics and @Team2708 as they take on the Durham College District event! #omgrobots #stemygk #frconosh

[W.A.F.F.L.E.S. Robotics @WAFFLESRobotics]

Huge shoutout to Anica and Eden for donating their hair for the annual HairRaiser! It's not too late to donate to their fundraising pages either! All funds are going to Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario, truly a great cause.

The VP of QFRC is raising money for Make-A-Wish as she donates some of her hair to make wigs for cancer patients and survivors. If you can donate, any little bit helps!!! #onematch #makeawish

[W.A.F.F.L.E.S. Robotics @WAFFLESRobotics]

Support Make-A-Wish and sponsor W.A.F.F.L.E.S. donating their hair for this worthy cause. It's easy to help us reach our goal!

Remember! Mental health > robotics! I know build season can get stressful but your health should always be your priority. Don’t be afraid to tell a trusted mentor, teacher, parent or other adult if you’re struggling or just want to have a conversation #BellLetsTalk #EndTheStigma
