Remember what FIRST is all about. You don't need to JUST help out on the team, at a regional or the Nationals. (Although I can say from experience it is a lot of fun) FIRST isn't just about building robots. Go out and help out and a homeless shelter, help out in your community and yes of course for the robots sake please try and find other teams to help out on or even be a mentor. I hate to sound old(because trust me i'm not), but when im mentoring these high school kids on the team in the workshop or anywhere, I get a great feeling of joy inside. So please do something that is FIRST like and of course, ALWAYS HAVE FUN!!!!!!!
