I'm all for making it loud and stuff, but I can't help but think that we are taking the position of an event that may be more deserving of this recognition.

Until I attended an event just as a spectator (rather than a participant/coach/volunteer/cheering section/student wrangler) I'd have never believed how relaxing and fun competitions are as an unattached party. Without all of the stress attached to having a role events are what I would consider family friendly, especially with the emphasis on "spectator friendly" games, teams and sponsor booths with fun give aways, interactive displays, etc.

Well, the votes are in, the FIRST Championship was voted one of the top seven best family-friendly events in St. Louis for 2013! Congrats to FIRST, and good job to everyone who voted! You can find the list of the seven winners, and a brief summary of each of them, including the FIRST Championship, here: http://www.stlsprout.com/articles/be...-award-winners! :)
