We are trying to change the date of Fall Fury, we don't want to compete with any other New England competitions as it is fun to attend as many as you can! Besides this is only our second year hosting and Bash has been around a lot longer.
Now to get a hold of FIRST, and re-plan everything at our school.... wish me luck!

Will there be the official FIRST Frenzy t-shirts available at Bash?
Also is Fall Fury going to be changed or is it set in stone?
Thanks,
