Fun In The Sun Robotics

Hello VEX community!

We wanted to take a moment to hear where everyone’s thoughts are right now. The big question being asked: VEX or RECF?

After a week of conversations and careful thought, we’re currently leaning toward VEX for the upcoming season—specifically VEX in partnership with the nonprofit Global Robotics and Science Foundation. Our thinking is to allow RECF some time to continue developing and working through the program, while VEX remains the established foundation as it stands today.

One of the biggest factors for us is the importance of keeping our local communities aligned within the same program. When we’re unified, it creates stronger opportunities for competitions, events, and growth to naturally build off one another—and that’s something we value deeply.

Have we made a final decision? Not 100%—we’re still listening, learning, and staying open.

We truly value the strength of this community here in Central Florida and beyond, and we’d love to hear from you. Which direction are you leaning, and why?

Drop your thoughts in the comments or feel free to DM us. We’re here to support, collaborate, and grow together. Appreciate you all!
