Firstly, a MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS to Celeste, who won the FIRST Leadership Award! She competed against winners from every regional and district and impressed the judges so much that she was one of only 10 students chosen!
Our teams played hard yesterday and going into the morning of Day 3, we have 2 teams currently ranked in the top 8 of their divisions (1771 and 1833), several more in the top 24 (1261, 4188, 6919, and 2974). We can't wait to see what alliances teams will be playing with for eliminations and are ready to cheer them on.

THANK YOU for making a difference!
Did you know
that across all levels of GeorgiaFIRST Robotics there are over 2300 volunteers serving in some capacity. Mentors, Coaches, and Event Volunteers.

For our FRC Season- 175 of our volunteers dedicated 3 of their weekends ( Thursday- Saturday) to work our events

22 volunteers actually volunteered for all of our 5 FRC Qualifiers and our State Championship!

It is not unheard of to hear that many of our volunteers have volunteered with FIRST for 15, 20, 25, 28 years.

This year we also had many first time volunteers- some of them are even Alumni pouring back into their communities.

Our Volunteers are dedicated and believe in GeorgiaFIRST! Our Volunteers whether working with our teams as mentors and coaches or volunteering with all of our programs across the state pour in countless hours to make a difference in the lives of our students.
