Why pay for college? FIRST has tons of scholarships for engineering minded students as well as a few other types of scholarships. This year, FIRST has compiled a list of 550 individual scholarships valued at $9.7 million in total. Thing is, you can't win these scholarships unless you apply, so open your mind to so new opportunities and take a look at the list on the FIRST website. http://www.usfirst.org/community/frc/content.aspx?id=508

We'd like to take this opportunity to welcome a new FRC team to the area: Team 2835 out of Liberty High School in Liberty Township of Trumbull County near Youngstown (not to be confused with our good friends, Team 1038, the Thunderhawks, who reside in Liberty Township of Butler County, Ohio). Our Core Team has already been meeting with their leadership to help them prepare for their new endeavor. As of now, they will be attending the Buckeye Regional with us in the upcoming competition season.

In order to get their students fired up about FIRST and inspire them to join the new team, we will be attending an assembly on Tuesday, October 7, at Liberty High School. We will be participating with our NEOFRA partners (Teams 276, 379, and 2010) to show them a sample of past competitions and demonstrate some of our robots.

Good luck to Team 2835 in their rookie season!!!
