Chairman's Award -- NYC FIRST Robotics Competition 2009

The FIRST Robotics Competition is about much more than the mechanics of building a robot or
winning a competitive event. It is about the partnership among people who are part of the
FIRST community and the impact on those who participate in FIRST programs with a united
goal of achieving FIRSTs mission. FIRSTs mission is to change the way young people regard
science and technology and to inspiring an appreciation for the real-life rewards and career
opportunities in these fields.

The concept of the Chairmans Award includes Regional Chairmans Awards, which enable
FIRST to recognize more teams for their exemplary efforts in spreading the FIRST message,
as well as their talents in organizing materials for their presentations.

The winning entries of the Regional Chairmans Awards will travel to the Championship for the continuing process of consideration for the most prestigious 2009 Chairmans Award to be given on April 18th, 2009.
