Each year the Hillsborough Kiwanis Club makes a donation to help support the Orange County Robotics Club.
This club, which has student members from Orange High School and Cedar Ridge High School, build robots that compete in a nationally organized event known as the FIRST Robotics Competition. This competition is a unique varsity sport of the mind designed to help high school aged young people discover how interesting and rewarding the live of engineers and researchers can be.
