Sunday, February 1, 2026 | Mile High Academy

Middle Schoolers, this is for YOU! Open to grades 4–8, no school affiliation required. Teams can be from churches, Pathfinders, homeschool groups, youth groups, or just a group of friends. Build your team — up to 10 members per team — and join the fun.

In partnership with FIRST Robotics, Adventist Robotics, the Mid-America Union Conference, the Rocky Mountain Conference, and Mile High Academy, this event challenges students to design, build, and program robots for hands-on challenges, not only building STEM skills but also learning teamwork, and creativity in a friendly competition.

Don’t have a coach? No problem! You don’t need to be a robotics expert, just someone with passion, commitment, and a willingness to follow a manual. Together with Adventist Robotics, we can help guide you through the process.

Let the building begin!

In addition to registering with MHA, teams must also register with:
