Balfour Rings offers FIRST Logo

I just got an email forwarded to me by 237's lead mentor. It said...

Hello,
My name is Bruce Rock, from Balfour Class Rings. On May 11 & 12, we will
be taking class rings orders at Watertown High School. I wanted to let
your team know, that for the first time ever, the "First Logo" will be
availble on the side of a class ring. I have attached a document to
show you what it looks like.

Good luck in Georgia!

Good news for 237 and any other school that uses Balfour. In the image they identified it as FIRST Lego League, but ehh its all the same logo.

And I do realize other threads have been posted talking about this, but this is specific to one vendor.

That's pretty sick. I'll be sure to get one next year.

Personally, I find class rings of that style to be obnoxiously large and clumsy to wear. Then again, I don't like bracelets or even watches either.

Personally, I find class rings to be simply a money making scheme.

I have money, and I want a FIRST class ring.

Looks like it is a working scheme anyways!

It's a symbol of your high school years. They aren't mandatory to buy, so if you don't want one you don't need to get one. You could also say jewelry in general is a money making scheme. After all, it's just metals. However in that metal something is represented, making it worth money to people.

I'm inclined to agree with Greg Marra and sanddrag, I really don't desire to spend money on some clunky piece of jewelry that represents my high school years. So far in two years, I've been at two different schools, and next year I'm changing again, so it seems that a class ring is sort of... I don't no, meaningless? It I got one and this was an option, I would, but I don't think I will, so for me, it is a moot point. I'd be more tempted to make a lighter and cheaper FIRST logo ring out of paperclips and solder.

If there was any time that Dave should say "Thats Pimp", now is the time.

Thats pretty cool, it'd make me reconsider my choice in not getting a ring, but I'm with everyone else, they are pretty overpriced and not my cup of tea (or brass).

I don't want a class ring (doesn't make sense...graduating this year...also too much $$ for my taste) BUT i have to say that that's pretty awesome. If anything were to actually convince me to get one, that logo has got to be it. I think it's nice that they drew up a logo for FIRST (even if it was for their personal benefit, i still think it rocks).
