Also, I also recommend to people to not just volunteer for announcer positions, but also any position you can get. Get to know the people who run the events, ya never know how they may help ya get to your goal.

Andy: Sure thing, sounds like fun.
See M.O.R.T., connections. Thats one of the reasons FIRST isn't very different from the real world. Decent grades, like an offseason comp, gets your name out there, and connections direct your name to the right person. Its quite interesting if you ask me.
Oh, remember, if you don't do a good job, then you get unhired, so it isn't all about having the right connections

PS: I'm a college freshman on summer vacation, so the advice is biased, if you couldn't already tell
