August 9, 2026 - Four years in, and WeRobot is still going strong. Today, the team gathered to close out the 2025–2026 season — a year that pushed WeRobot's reach even further, with more mentors stepping up, more elementary teams coached, and more students introduced to robotics than ever before.

​

The biggest shift this year came off the competition floor as founder Kevin has graduated (Congratulations, Kevin! We are incredibly proud of you and wish you all the best in this exciting next chapter), passing the torch to Aiken as WeRobot's new president, with Ryan and Vincent stepping in as vice presidents. The new leadership team used the celebration to look back on how far WeRobot has come since its founding, thank the mentors and students who made the season possible, and lay out what's next as WeRobot heads into its fifth year.

​

Joe and Rick, the leaders of Sandpiper Robotics, also made the trip to join the celebration in person — a gesture that meant a lot to everyone in the room and underscored just how deep the partnership between the two programs has grown. The afternoon wrapped, fittingly, with pizza and a shared sense of momentum heading into next season.
