Volunteering
Volunteers are currently needed for Dec. 2nd and/or 3rd. FIRST volunteers make a difference in the lives of young people, helping them to discover the real-world value in science and technology. FIRST volunteers are people from all walks of life that come together to lead by example in the ways of science, technology, and citizenship.

About
FIRST® LEGO® League introduces younger students to real-world engineering challenges by building LEGO-based robots to complete tasks on a thematic playing surface. Teams of up to ten kids participate in the challenge by programming an autonomous robot to score points on a themed playing field (Robot Game), developing a solution to a problem they have identified (Project), all guided by the FIRST LEGO League Core Values.
The Challenge: Hydrodynamics
On your mark, get set, flow! Drink in the 2017/2018 HYDRO DYNAMICS season and learn all about water - how we find, transport, use, or dispose of it. In the 2017/18 FIRST® LEGO® League Challenge, students age 9 to 16 from 80 countries will make a splash with HYDRO DYNAMICS. What might become possible when we understand what happens to our water?
