FIRST Meeting 09-11-2008

Action Items

Start thinking about what team/role you want to work in (mechanical, electrical, etc...)
Join the mailing list if you are not already on it.

We run the FIRST kickoff and this year it will be held at Georgia Tech
We are heading up the FIRST BETA efforts here in Georgia with several local teams participating
The goal is for the high school students to have a good experience and be interested in pursuing science and technology
We have several positions for people to step up to. This doesn't mean you do all the work, it just means you oversee the progress and we have someone to get updates from
Meeting times and dates are flexible and will be announced through the website and mailing list
