    Description

    FIRST LEGO League - Challenge Bedrock Championship

    Help us build the next generation of STEM leaders. Whether you are a lifelong FIRST Robotics participant or have no experience, we have a role for you.

    We are looking for one-day volunteers to assist kids in learning about STEM, robotics, and teamwork. We have several roles, such as judging, refereeing matches, and check-in.

    On Saturday, we are seeking volunteers to help with set-up at 1 pm and to help check in our teams until 7 pm. The time commitment is 1 - 7 pm. On Sunday, we are looking for full-day volunteers to help us run the event from 7 am - 7 pm.

    Our events include lunch and the opportunity to network with others in the tech and engineering space across the Bay Area.

    FIRST Robotics is a program for K-12 youth. Students form teams and build robots from LEGOs or other mechanical parts to complete certain tasks, develop projects to solve a problem in society, and compete at events from November - May. During the competitions, they use their robot to compete with other teams and present their innovation project to a team of judges. This teaches them about engineering, coding, public speaking, marketing, and teamwork.
