Clearwave Fiber hosted a celebration Tuesday afternoon at the Kansas Wesleyan University Student Activity Center, honoring the Salina Roboyotes high school robotics team with a financial contribution and community recognition event.
The gathering featured a check presentation from Clearwave Fiber's senior leadership, including the CEO, to support the team's ongoing competition and equipment needs. Students demonstrated their latest robotic creations for attendees, showcasing the technical skills developed through their STEM education programs.
The Salina Roboyotes have earned regional recognition for their competitive robotics achievements, combining engineering, programming, and teamwork to tackle complex technical challenges.
Interactive demonstrations allowed community members to see the robots in action and learn about autonomous navigation systems and precision manipulation tasks. Students engaged with families and younger potential participants throughout the event.
Local educators praised the partnership as an example of effective community investment in STEM education. The financial support will help cover competition fees, equipment costs, and travel expenses for upcoming tournaments.
