Hello Everyone,
I would just like to remind you that we are still looking for teams to come to the Big-E and show off your robot and FIRST.
What is the Big-E? The Big-E is one of the largest fairs in the country. It happens every year in West Springfield, MA and draws over 1 million people from all over New England, and farther. It starts September 15 and ends August 1.
Where will FIRST be featured? Through the hard work of FIRST, the Big-E, and Team 175 we have put together FIRST Showcase 2000. The 17 day event will feature teams from all over New England exhibiting their robots. During these days their will be scheduled live demonstrations on an official FIRST field. If their is enough teams signed up for a particular weekend there is a possibility of a tournament as well. For those of you who have been before, it will be held in a 5,600 square foot area in the Young Building.
For more information and to register please visit TheBigE.BuzzRobotics.org.
