Number of competitions can be found on the FIRST website. I want to say that we're up to or over 50 regional and district events, but I've lost count. (Even the fantasy league can't keep up with how many, just what and when!)

There are some personal stories on here; they can be found in after-event reflection-type threads, or by looking at the Unsung FIRST Heroes area (linked in the gray bar at the top of the page.

You might take a look at the FIRST in the News subforum here; many times, if FIRST is in the news, someone will put a link there.
