Re: This Is Appalling Behavior At A FIRST Event
There are thousands of FIRST teams who get core values. They are even judged on it.

FLL Core Values:

There were also complaints about scouting teams sitting in the seats reserved for handicapped. I sent a note back to volunteer managers to see if there were extra crowd control volunteers who could remind teams why these areas were set aside. I have no idea if there was follow-up.

I thank Cat for sharing her experience. I think posts like this can help remind all of us we are one big community, and individually and as community we can raise awareness to make sure this doesn't happen again at any FIRST event.
