About Team 254
"The Cheesy Poofs Robotics Team, 254, has evolved over the years from the smallest program in the country in 1999, at a struggling high school, to a large program based at the NASA Ames Research Center (ARC). While the team's student members have changed, the Cheesy Poofs have continued to flourish."
