FIRST is pleased to announce that, in cooperation with the volunteer leadership of FIRST in the state of Michigan, a new pilot district event model will be launched for the 2009 FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) season to provide increased robotics competitions and reach more students statewide in Michigan.
The volunteer leadership in Michigan has launched its own 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization in the state, which will be known as ‘FIRST in Michigan’, to implement and execute the new district event pilot model as well as other FIRST programs. FIRST in Michigan will be responsible for implementing FRC programs in the state to make the most effective use of local resources and create more opportunities in robotics for students.
