This is for my son's robotics team, through the FIRST Robotics program. It's an amazing program where they build a robot and have to compete over the course of the season, with a chance to go to the district finals and eventually the world championships in Houston. Last year they made the district finals in Spokane but fell just a bit short of moving on. If you want to know more about the program, check out FIRST Robotics on YouTube.
Here's a video showing what FIRST Robotics is all about:

So, we will be there doing what we can to help them fundraise.
I'll be there with my biker scout and my R2. I need to get a donation bin and a backdrop, if possible, as we will be doing pics for free, but donations are accepted with all donations going to the Stormbots. Please consider coming out to help me with this amazing program for STEM kids!
