Re: Girls,Why did you join FIRST???
Okay, don't laugh, I joined because my mom told me to. She had been a part of the NJ Commission on Science and Technology when FIRST was just getting its feet wet in NJ. In fact, I think NJCST gave grant money to the program. Anyway, she was invited to attend a competition the same year (1999), and dragged me (a little 8th grader at the time) along. I've been hooked ever since. xD
