Greetings Teams:
Make it LOUD on Capitol Hill! We are looking for 6 more teams to join FRC Team RUSH 27 and many other FIRST teams at the second annual FIRST National Advocacy Conference on June 14-16th in Washington, DC!
To change our culture to one that values STEM, we must get the policy makers in Washington, DC on board with knowing about and supporting FIRST and STEM in education. For the first time ever, the proposed Elementary and Secondary Education Act contains support for teams participating in after-school mentor-based STEM engagement programs like FIRST. The more FIRST teams we can have advocating for this, the better chance we have of passing this legislation through the House of Representatives and Senate and getting the President's signature on it to make it law!
This is a historic time in Washington, DC and you can be part of increasing STEM engagement throughout the United States. For additional information on the conference, along with registration information, please visit: http://www.teamrush27.net/nac. The registration deadline is Thursday, May 14th.
2015 Post Season Awards Order Forms: Teams wishing to purchase medallions, pins, plaques and trophies may do so by downloading the forms available here: http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/post-season-order-form. Please note: all sales will be completed through Crown Trophy. If you have any questions regarding your order, please contact them directly at awa...@crowntrophy18.com. Banners may be purchased directly through First Impressions.
Lost and Found Items: All lost and found items from Regional Events and the Championship get packed on our trucks and return to FIRST Headquarters. If you lost an item at a Regional or the Championship and did not complete a lost and found form, please email frct...@usfirst.org with a description of your lost item, along with the name of the event at which it was lost. We will contact you directly if your item has been found. District teams should contact their District Planning Committee regarding lost item requests.
Go Teams!
