FIRST Unknown

[irishninja]

I was looking through different timelines of robotics and its history. I went through several pages of google looking for information on this. I found plenty of listings on Battlebots, Robotica, and other robotic combat shows, but not a single timeline had an entry on FIRST! I was a bit shocked, amazed, and to tell the truth, a bit disappointed. So, although I know there are plenty of challenges like this out there, and Dean's Homework involves this, spread the message. Bring a friend to the competition, put on shows. It isn't too hard to get some of your old robots and drive them around. Advertise. FIRST is a great organization, and it has impacted me in many different ways from living at school, to deciding to go into engineering. I know I am not the only one who has been impacted by this great experience, so please tell people about FIRST. Point them to different FIRST websites. Bring them to competitions. Put on shows. Start new teams, FRC, FVC, or FLL. It doesn't matter. But I know that being on the robotics team has given me some of the best memories of my life, and I wouldn't want anybody else to miss out on that.
