Why did you join FIRST?
I think that I have an unusual story as to how I got involved in FIRST.
And I'm pretty sure that it isn't normal proceedure. So I was wondering,
How did you get involved in FIRST?
Whether you're a mentor or a student, a volunteer or a teammate, FRC or FLL, how did you get involved?
And if you were wondering my story;
When I was in 6th grade, my mom woke me up one Saturday and my parents and I went to Chicago. I had no idea why we were going, but next thing I know, I'm walking into this arena, with a bunch of kids in matching shirts and robots on a colorful field (Triple Play)('05). I was going to my first regional to watch the robot that my two siblings helped make. It never occured to me before then that they were even on a robotics team (or that such a thing existed!), but I was watching, and it looked like so much fun, and just really cool. Ever since, I’ve been hooked. I pretty much knew as I left the venue that I was going to join the team when I went to high school.
What's your story?
