For anyone in the Austin area or who might know individuals in the Austin Area - please pass along this message. I am passing along a message regarding FIRST robotics presence at the Austin Mini Maker Faire.
All,
FIRST robotics has a 50’ x 60’ space at this year’s Maker Faire in Austin.
The producers have also given us a discount code: FIRST_is_a_maker_too
Code gives a 20% discount. It’s the same discount other codes get, but having a separate code will provide visibility into how well we’re represented.
So, my request… please distribute the code to your communities along with the following:

All,
This Sunday, at the Palmer Events Center in Austin, FIRST will be on display at this year’s Austin Mini Maker Faire.
At last year’s Faire, over 2000 attendees enjoyed over 50 exhibits, speakers, performers and demonstrations. This year, the Austin Mini Maker Faire will have 100+, ranging from a small Steampunk village to FTC and FRC 2013 competition robot demonstrations to the Austin Astronomical Society.
Please come show your support for FIRST as well as enjoy the growth and excitement of the Maker community.
The Faire will be held from 10am to 6pm on Sunday, May 5th. Individuals and groups associated with FIRST can use the discount code:
FIRST_is_a_maker_too for a 20% discount on admission.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing you at the Faire.
