I believe this is a huge stepping stone for FIRST because in this commercial it stands next to organizations such as 4-h, YMCA, and Boys and Girls Club. Very interesting find RC.

I believe the sponsorship of JCP is one team for each store, but I'm not certain.


Anyway, this is incredibly impressive and huge. The fact that they're putting FIRST next to organizations that are established in the public's mind shows something.
