General information

2027 Wisconsin RECF State Championship - Engage Middle School


Venue

This year's State Championship will be held at Fox Valley Lutheran High School. Food vendors and concessions will be available on site, but carry-ins ARE allowed.

The Wisconsin RECF State Championship is once again brought to you by Oshkosh Corporation. We thank them for their continued support! Stop by the displays and activities from Oshkosh and other partners at the event. 


Volunteering

This is YOUR Wisconsin VEX State Championship! As such, we are asking YOU to help make this event as great as possible for everyone attending. Many volunteers are needed to make this event a success. The Wisconsin RECF State Championships are run to benefit all RECF Teams in Wisconsin. As such we need all RECF Teams in Wisconsin to help make them successful and sustainable events.

There are lots of volunteer roles that need to be filled. There are also four separate State Tournaments happening the same weekend, and we can use help at all of them. Consider volunteering for one of the events you are not participating in. That will give you more time at your event and help make the other events successful, too!

We expect all teams participating in the Wisconsin VEX State Tournament to provide volunteers. Each volunteer opportunity has been given a number of "Volunteer Points." We are asking each TEAM to cover 4 volunteer points for the events. Please keep the following things in mind when signing up volunteers:

  • Volunteers must provide the team number and letter to credit the correct team with the volunteer points
  • We would ask local teams to consider signing up for spots that would be more difficult for teams travelling a distance to cover, such as setup and cleanup tasks
  • Teams that fail to signup for volunteer spots will be assigned volunteer tasks
  • If you are a Achieve team, you may sign up to help at the Engage event, and if you are a Engage team, you may sign up to help at the Achieve event. Then you won't miss any of the action at your event!

Volunteer signups will be posted soon. Check back here for updates.


Event Apparel

Custom event apparel will be available at the event. Take home a memory of the season!
