Sure, we are just one small State............but you can understand the concern if you were from here. Whether we are from the mainland US or not, we have students who enjoy FIRST much like everyone else.

What if... HI was included in a CA districting plan?

The only problem with that is, you'd still have to get the robots to the mainland somehow, and then get students over there.
