FIRST LEGO League @ Orlando Regional 2016 - Show Notes

FIRST LEGO League @ Orlando Regional 2016

Friday Mar 11, 2016 (00:13:11)

Description

One of the great things about FIRST is that it is one big community. No matter your age or league, everyone feels a connection. Because of that, at a FIRST Robotics Competition regional, there is representation from FIRST LEGO League. Beth Hanning, the Florida Northwest Region Partner for FIRST LEGO League, talked to us about the program and how it relates to the event. We also discussed SOFWERX, a facility in Tampa that has gotten involved with FIRST, even hosting the local FIRST Stronghold Kick Off.
