Web Community

Our goals for our website are:

• To spread the word about Skunkworks and what we have accomplished
• To share what we have created for the growth and benefit of other student teams
• To create a place where our team can communicate and coordinate plans and efforts
• To provide opportunities for students to learn and develop writing, graphic design, and web skills

This website is intended to be a resource to many different audiences.

Our students can use the website to review upcoming events, view team photos, check our sub-teams' progress and our team history. Parents on our team can see what their Skunks are doing throughout the year. They also use the site to understand what FIRST is and what the team is all about. See Team page.

Sponsors, fondly called boosters, can use the site to find information on the team and updates on our activities. See News page.

Alumni use the site to keep up on the team and it's activities, because "once a Skunk, always a Skunk!"

The Journal is a record of our team's history that incoming students can use to become familiar with our past teams and events. We also have a build season blog, that is updated several times a week. This blog contains lots of information about our build process and activities. Visit Behind the Smell Blog.

We also use the website to share our experiences and knowledge from current and past seasons with other teams in FIRST. We allow fellow teams to use our documents and the rest of our site as a resource for their own teams. View the Skunk Zone for useful documents.

We inform our fellow students at our school of what we are up to with calenders of upcoming events. View Events page.

This year we have also expanded to using the photo sharing site BlueMelon and share with others our experience in Skunkworks Robotics. View Photo Gallery.

Our website attracts over 500 unique visitors a month and that number continues to grow. We strive to keep our website, and Gallery pages, up to date.
