New Jersey State Aerial Drone Competition

Our team at SARA hosted a drone outreach event on March 10th, 2024. The goal of the event was to inspire teamwork among dozens of people. The competition had an enthusiastic environment where volunteers, staff, and members met to take on a robotics challenge. Our team at SARA hosted multiple booths for promotional efforts, and hosted the competition where we gained the attention of politicians among New Jersey. The drone event featured over 25 teams who used their STEM skills in a friendly competition to progress in the stages, and the competition proved to be a success for both the organization and the members! With the support of our NJ Congressman Mr. Frank Pallone, Edison Mayor Mr. Sam Joshi,  Assemblyman Mr. Robert Karabinchak, Assemblyman Mr. Sterley Stanley, the Edison Democratic Organization Chairman Mr. Bimal Joshi, Edison Board of Education President Mr. Biral Patel, Edison Board of Education Members and Edison Council-members were able to spread the mission of STEM throughout New Jersey. SARA continues to spread awareness about STEM Education and inspire students across the state in the upcoming months. 

On May 17th, 2024, our team at SARA hosted the West Virginia Aerial Drone Competition. The event's purpose was to expand the robotics workspace and encourage collaboration and spread awareness for SARA. Over 50 teams attended with their own posters and booths, creating a vibrant, social atmosphere. The large amount of people present at the event created a friendly environment where each team used their collaboration skills and robotics talent to progress further into the competition. Our team at SARA used booths to promote our organization and spread awareness about robotics advancements. The event was a success, as the competition flowed smoothly, everyone had a fun time, and information was spread about STEM.
