Hey everybody…

…up here on the east coast, we’re trying to do a little to stir up FIRST life… it’s called BostonFIRST…

BostonFIRST is a collaborative of teams who are going to do their best to work together to help spread the word of FIRST, encourage and aid in the creation of new teams, and assist each other during the FIRST season…

Though we are still in the developing stages… www.bostonfirst.org will be developed to become a resource center for all teams participating in the FIRST program… with how-to guides, links to sites like rambots.com and buzzu.org, and various ideas for community involvement and team development…

… the goal of this organization is to embody ‘Co-opertition’… through web-based resources, scrimmages, demos, community involvement and much more… we look to bring together all FIRST teams as we work towards the common goal of a technologically-adept society…

Check out our site and keep up-to-date with our activities… there’s lots of potential and big dreams in our future… join us for the fun :slight_smile:

Your BostonFIRST directors,
Colleen Shaver, Anton Abaya & Lora Knepper

Colleen, Anton & Lora,

Excellent idea! I’m definitely jealous, since I don’t live in Boston.

Hmmmm… there could be an IndianaFIRST, MichiganFIRST, CaliforniaFIRST, etc… this could be the start of something really great.

Kudos to you!

We would like to make clear that the BostonFIRST Forums are in no way an attempt to relpace the thriving boards that Chief Delphi runs. They are for discussion of BostonFIRST material only, such as people looking to join, upcoming events, and questions about who we are. Thanks!
