The Kokomo Kickoff is happening again this year.

Come see the flatness that is Kokomo, where the highest point for 100 miles around is a natural gas tower. You too can dine in one of the many fast food joints that makes us have more chain restaurants than any city in the US*.

Also, you can't miss the glory of Kokomo as you sit at one of our many stoplights (Kokomo has more stoplights per capita than any other city in the US*).

You too can visit the great city where stainless steel, the first American car*, first automotive transmission, and the first car radio were invented.

Last year, we had 31 teams converge on the great city that is Kokomo. Everyone got to see the live broadcast (we even phoned in a question to Manchester!), get their kits, and see playing field components.

We hope for more teams this year. I know what you're thinking... "we could go to NYC and see the big apple, or Manchester to see Dean's house and the home of FIRST... or we could go to Kokomo and see a very large stuffed steer (true!) and a really big Sycamore trunk (true again!)".

Even the Beach Boys think highly of Kokomo:

"Aruba, Jamaica ooo I wanna take you
To Bermuda, Bahama come on pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego baby why don't we go
Ooo I wanna take you down to Kokomo"
