Team information
"The secret of building a successful team is not to assemble the largest team possible, but rather to assemble a team that can work well together." - Dean Kamen, founder of FIRST
The Bonny Eagle Robotics Team (BERT) consists of 29 students from Bonny Eagle High School in Standish, Maine. The team considers Eagle Industries, Inc. in Hollis, Maine, to be their home. BERT is a very diverse team made up of students with many backgrounds and interests. Our team includes women, men, Eagle Scouts, Varsity Athletes, gamers, students in the top 5% of their class, a home schooled student, and the list goes on. The team may be diverse, but all of these students share a common interest; to learn about technology and engineering
