We are The Quackens, an Idaho-based FIRST Tech Challenge team (#20169). Our main sponsor is PiSTEM Academy, which provides funding and a practice space for our team. We also mentor the PiSTEM Lego League team.
This is our fourth year as an FTC team, and we continue to grow and develop each season. We're passionate about engineering, innovation, and giving back to our community through STEM outreach.
