There are no plans for FIRST teams to return to the Big E this year.
We have received a number of calls and emails from last year's
FIRST Showcase 2000: New England participants about participating this year. Unfortunately we will not be running the Showcase at this year's Big E.
Typically, the Big E changes their major theme each year. This year's theme is "The Big E World Tour." Last year's theme was "Technology and Education," in which FIRST was a perfect fit.
For those teams that participated in last year's
FIRST Showcase 2000: New England, we would like to thank you for your help. We had a great time, and we hope you did, too.
The next time we run an event like this, we will be sure to let you know.
If your team is interested in running a similar event, please feel free to contact us, and we will be more than willing to share our experiences.
