FIRST definitely is inspiring in many ways, but one of the ways it inspires me the most is the way that it can bring everybody together. When I was on Team Hammond, we were composed of the four area high schools in Hammond, IN. Normally, all of the schools are HUGE rivals. However, with robotics, we all come together and form our own little family, and all the barriers that were there before are just gone.
That's just one of the amazing powers of FIRST, I guess.
