Specialty Clothing Stores in Milpitas

Often the malls just don’t carry the kind of clothing or offer the kind a personal alterations you need. That’s when you begin to look for the little specialty clothing shops that will create the outfit you want, such as for a wedding or prom. Milpitas also has some unique ethnic clothing stores, and two stores where you can recycle clothing.

COVID-19 Update:Business operations may be affected due to ongoing precautionary measures, please contact the business directly for updated hours and availability.

Milpitas Xtreme Robotics Making 3D Face Shields

Milpitas Xtreme Robotics is the official robotics club of Milpitas High School, and we aim to offer opportunities for club members to pursue a career in STEM, robotics, and engineering through hands-on experiences with robots. More than just that, however, we’re life-changers and big thinkers. We’re not afraid to get our hands dirty with a robot. We’re a club that works on crazy projects all the time. Our mission is to spark a passion for robotics in our members; to watch them fall in love and to help them never let go.

Milpitas extreme Robotics Club

This past year, our club of 100+ members has worked on 5 major competitions, 5 major projects, 7 hosted programs, and various other outreach events and workshops. Our club had been founded in 2002 but stagnated for years, before its revival in 2016. We won our first trophy in over a decade this year, and soon after, our second, third, and forth. The days we learned of our qualifications to VEX State and 2020 World Championships were a few of the many landmarks we set this year.

Although the recent COVID-19 outbreak has thrown a wrench in our plans, we are pushing forward, doing what we can to do our part in helping slow and stop the virus’ spread. One of the new projects we have undertaken is our effort to 3D print face shield parts in partnership with Maker Nexus to donate to local hospitals, and we have already printed over 50 so far.

President, Milpitas Xtreme Robotics
