Welcome to the 2007 Gearheads Website!

Our Mission - Grosse Pointe Gearheads' mission is to provide an environment where students build the science, engineering and life skills to become capable, confident leaders in science, mathematics, engineering, business and communications through successful participation in FIRST robotics competitions.

Quick Information - We currently hold a team meeting every Thursday at 7pm in the CAD lab at Grosse Pointe South High School while school is in session. Feel free to contact us at gearingcommittee(at)gpgearheads(dot)org if you have any questions.

Web Nodes We are very proud of our 2007 website as it is a much improved version over the previous year. Please take the time to explore how this website functions via our Gearhead-developed Content Management System.
We are also happy to present Gearhead Crossing, our Scouting, Scoring and Alliance Analysis system. There is a lot of useful information on the Gearhead Crossing pages. Gearhead
Robot CAD Sketch This year we improved upon our Design and Engineering capabilities with the use of Autodesk Inventor. Although what could be termed a 'rough transition' from Key Creator, we did see many benefits.
