 FIRST is the most glorious test of the mind. Anyone can run a marathon or get a slam-dunk. It takes guts to admit you are a nerd that enjoys six weeks off non-stop stress, and actually thrives on it. - kws4000 [more] |

Wow! Kansas FIRST Team Explosion! 2.15 Million Grant
Anyone live in Kansas? If you do, you can pretty much start up a FIRST team in a five county area.
QUOTE: "Currently, there are only two Robotics teams in the five-county Kansas City area (Jackson, Clay and Platte counties in Missouri, and Johnson and Wyandotte counties in Kansas). The Kauffman Foundation's grant will make it possible to expand to more than 60 teams - thus providing the opportunity for most high schools in the five-county area to form a team and participate. The grant will also allow the Kansas City FIRST organization to host its first regional Robotics competition in the spring of 2007.
