We're super excited about this coming Saturday's ROBOTICON Robotics Education & Competition Foundation VEX V5 Tournament at Brooks DeBartolo Collegiate High School. 26 Middle and High School teams from around the state will be competing in this season's engineering challenge "Push Back", a fun, high energy game of mechanical and programming skills. We could use a few more volunteers though, to give paticipating youth the best experience possible, particularly in judging roles.

No experience is needed, just interest in listening to the student teams. You get question lists and work in pairs to talk to the teams. It's a really nice role and a great way to encourage and inspire students. Here's a general overview - https://kb.roboticseducation.org/hc/en-us/articles/4906930541719-Judge-Volunteer-Role-Overview - and the Judge Advisor trains volunteers in the morning.

Your support makes it possible for us to give participating teams a meaningful and enjoyable competition experience, giving them an opportunity to share their work and growing STEM experience with people who are interested and can give them relevant feedback, encouragement and support.

An afternoon of your attention now, can give students inspiration for a lifetime of success! And you'll also have fun! It's a rewarding experience.

Volunteer registation is open now at https://lnkd.in/e6Hq7E_A

As always, volunteers receive light breakfast bites, coffee and juice, lunch, an event shirt, snacks and refreshments throughout the day. And you also get immense and enduring appreciation and respect! 🫶🏾
