Looks like I have some catching up to do...

Wow! Its nice to see ChiefDelphi hasn’t changed much in my nearly 4-year absence! However, it appears at a glance that FRC and FLL have, not including whatever other competitions have started in that time.

I have been drafted to give a presentation on FIRST and the various competitions at a homeschool convention breakout in a few months, (mostly basic stuff, “What is FIRST/FRC/FLL/etc, who is it for, how to start a team, costs, etc.”) I’m going to have to get re-versed on everything! So I thought I’d pull out the old CD account and see whats changed.

What did I get myself into! http://www.ar15.com/images/smilies/smiley_abused.gif

Welcome back! Check out the Communication Resource Center on the FIRST web site. They have lots of resources, including Powerpoint presentations on the programs that you can personalize.

If you’re looking for resources about presenting robotics competitions, check out the AndyMark presentations page. I’ve liberally {borrowed} from that library - as long as you give credit where credit is due, I don’t think they’ll mind.
