FIRST: a youth-based program to create & inspire our future innovators and leaders
Please take advantage of the numerous opportunities for Illinois FIRST teams to demo their robots and projects at FIRST tournaments, community events, museums, professional conferences and expositions, etc. Many of these events occur annually. If you missed the demo opportunity this year, please plan to participate next year. Check back later for next year's dates.
If you are aware of any demo opportunities that are not included in the list below (but should be), please e-mail Mari Miller, FIRST AmeriCorps VISTA, at mmiller@usfirst.org.
