There's been hope that High Tech Kids, who runs FIRST LEGO League Junior, FIRST LEGO League and FIRST Tech Challenge for Minnesota will also take on the FIRST Robotics Competition. I'm sure both MN FIRST and High Tech Kids are working diligently to figure out something that will work in the future.
