Re: Imagine: The Next Year's Challenge Unveiled at Championship Closing Ceremonies

one of the primary characteristics of FIRST is that it is the most intense 6 weeks most students have ever experienced

if you turn FIRST into a 52 week back burner project I think most of the impact would simmer away.

How many other times have HS students stayed up for 48 or 72 hours (before ship date) and thought it was the greatest thing they ever did?

FIRST pushes students to their personal limit. In a way, its kinda like bootcamp for engineering recruits.

There are plently of other things students can do for the rest of the year related to FIRST.
