Meet the Team | Talon Robotics, 2502

Hello FIRST Ladies! We are FRC Team 2502 Talon Robotics, based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota and we are excited to be a part of this organization. Our super cool team works like this: we have five business teams that organize fundraisers to encourage connections around our community and five build subteams that are constantly troubleshooting and teaching younger members. Our biggest event is our spaghetti fundraiser, which showcases our beautiful robot to friends and family of our FLL, FRC, and FTC teams. Otherwise, we go around Eden Prairie and show off our robot to kids and adults alike. We have 50% female leadership, on both sides of the team, who continue to show girls what it means to be interested in STEM and extremely valuable to the team. 

​What sets us apart is our newest neutral subteam, Inclusivity. We want to make it known that everyone who joins, no matter their skill level or identity, is accepted to the fullest extent. This means monthly team builders, from games to movie nights, and mental health initiatives to encourage the healthiest environment for everyone. One of our coolest ways to be inclusive is our “Awesome Sauce Box”. This is a chance to highlight someone on the team for the work they’ve done recently, big or small. Lastly, we value leadership on our team, from hosting a team builder to leading a prototype for the start of the season, we’re always looking for our members to step out of their comfort zones and reach new heights.
