Cougars Gone Wired is FIRST Robotics Competition Team 2996. We are located out of Coronado High School in Colorado Springs, Colorado and we are a district-wide team. Currently, 60 students from Coronado High School and Palmer High School participate actively on the team. The team is structured much like a business, with all student-run leadership, and community events year round.
