It always seems to amaze me that few people actually know what FIRST is about. FIRST is not just a robotics competition and if that is what people think then I feel sorry for those people. FIRST stresses community involvement and volunterism. Chairman's Award spotlights a team's accomplishments outside of competition because FIRST is not all about COMPETITION. My team (Technkats 45) has taken a very important part of our community. We have a Bona Vista Project for our community. Bona Vista is a local community resource center. It also helps those with mental and physical handicaps. The Technokats developed equipment for those small children who are physically handicapped, that equipment helps them to develop their muscles. We also do a Ball Drop at New Years', we perform during half time at local basketball games, and we also do many other things that make our community aware of who we are and what we do. Our town realizes that we are not just a robotics team and FIRST is not just a robotics organization. FIRST wants each team to do community services and Chairman's Award explemifies each teams' community works. That is why it is such a prestigious award.
