FIRST Robotics Competition 03/06-03/08
The FIRST organization is hosting a regional robotics competition this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at Hale arena. Admission is free to the public although there is a $7 charge for parking.
This isn't a Battlebots like competition. Teams of high school kids are challenged to build a robot that solves a complex problem from a standard parts kit.
Come out and support your local nerds.
