FIRST Robotics Competition Invites SWE Members to Attend Granite State Regional Competition

We're excited about the recent partnership between US FIRST Robotics and SWE! We'd like to extend an invitation to all the SWE members in your section to attend our local regional, Granite State Regional at the Verizon Center in Manchester, NH on Friday and Saturday, March 5th and 6th. This is an exciting day where teams get to showcase their robots in a competition against other local teams. Tune in to the FIRST/SWE webinar on March 2nd for more information about the partnership between the two organizations and FIRST in general.

If you decide to attend one of these competitions, look for our team in the pits and in the stands. We can be seen in royal blue t-shirts with yellow lettering. Also, in the pits there should be one team representing USFirstGirls, a program that works to inspire girls to enter STEM fields. We'll be happy to answer your questions, show you around, and help you get more involved in this program that really affects teenage girls and steers them toward STEM careers.
