We are still looking for new recruits! Pandamaniacs serves 9th-12th grade from our home base near Dutch Square in Columbia. The competition season kicks off January 10th, and no experience is required! We'll build our 23rd competition robot over January and February before tournaments in March.

Meetings start back on January 5th, Mondays and Wednesdays 6-9 and Saturdays 1-6. Come when you can, communicate when you can't.

Lookit what we got!

It’s a new (to us) forklift! Actually, it’s older than any of our employees except our owner, Allen, who is young at heart.

This machine will certainly lift us up.
