FLL Challenge Teams 2025-2026 Season UNEARTHED

FIRST Lego League (FLL) teams #1932 and #4700

From August- December each year we organize and coach FIRST Lego League Teams #4700,   #1932 for the season UNEARTHED will begin the middle week in August 2025 with an organizational meeting.  For more information email 

This year's FIRST Lego League Challenge is UNEARTHED. This season children will lbe on an archeological adventure. Every artifact we uncover holds a story. Each tool, each innovation, each work of art connects us to the people and ideas that came before us. Using STEM skills and teamwork, today we can dig deeper into discoveries than ever before.

Students will use FIRST Core Values (Discovery, Innovation, Teamwork, Inclusion, Impact and Fun) and the Engineering Design Process to design, build and program a robot to complete missions on the Robot Game Board, and to propose an innovative solution to a problem faced by archeologists while exploring past civilizations. All their results will be demonstrated in an event of sharing and competition at the end of the season. Spokane Region FLL Competition days = December, at Freeman Middle School.

Previous years FLL Themes and Team projects

Submerged 24/25

#1932 Team Energy, who were interested and concerned for the state of coral reefs in warming oceans, wrote an educational song, called "The Coral is Bleaching" to teach people about the importance of the coral ecosystem in our oceans and how to protect them.

#4700 The RoboSharks researched and designed an alert system to deter sharks from accidentally getting into fishing nets.

Masterpiece 23/24

#1932 "Henergy" researched and designed an app all about raising chickens to assist students and families in Spokane wanting to get into the hobby of raising chickens.

#4700 "Drag 'n' Drop Forgers" designed and created a model for an improvement to beginner model 3-D printers to add a camera to display nozzle output. Most beginners waste a bunch of filament when a small error happens and the printer may be programmed for several hours making "spaghetti". The camera can be monitored and a big mess can be avoided.

Superpowered 22/23

#4700 "Solar Rays" solved an energy problem by developing a clear film to apply to windows to collect solar rays and convert to dc electrical current. They earned a place in the Eastern WA state Championship with an award for Robot Design.

#1932 "Team NRgEEE" worked on a campaign to spread the word about using your smart meter to better manage energy use at home and produced a 30 public service announcement. They earned a place in the Eastern WA state Championship with the highest robot Game score and runner up Champions Award for overall performance.

#57092 "Wireless Wits" studied the possibilities for wireless energy transmission and built a great robot.

Cargo Connect 21/22

#4700, "The Cargo Cats," enabled a local Import Fairtrade company improve its tracking of burlap bales of goods shipped from Nepal to US as cargo on passenger airline planes with innovative use of Apple AirTags.

#1932, TA FRAANK, created an app prototype to enable the scientists monitoring the barging of Salmon smolt around dams on the Snake and Columbia Rivers to get read-outs of water temperature, oxygenation levels, and exact position of the barges to intervene if necessary, improving the safety of transporting young Salmon.
