I'm one of the college mentors on the Georgia Tech FIRST team. We have about 10 of us here that have done FIRST before that are involved on the team. I personally came from team #408 the RoboTicks (previously #132). We have people from the Bobcats (177), SPAM (180), Ramtech (59 i think), and many others that I can't think of so far. We started team #608 last year and they tried to go off on their own this year so we started team 832. According to Dean and the President of Tech we can expect a Regional here at Tech next year which will be very exciting. Our group is part of RoboJackets, a club here at Tech, which is involved in Dragoncon, Vacubot competitions, as well as Battlebots. Our goal in the FIRST group is to get as many teams in the Atlanta area as we can. WE would love to get more help. Feel free to email me at
gte936m@prism.gatech.edu. I look forward to hearing from you and answering any question (about Tech or our FIRST team). Don't forget to come visit us at KSC and Nats.
