What FIRST means to me:

FIRST is the hobby that I could only dream about as a kid.  It allows
teenagers an opportunity to get hands-on experience in developing
hardware and software to compete in an exciting game that prepares them
for real-life assignments.  It also helps kids that might feel like outcasts,
geeks, or nerds a chance to be involved on a team where their skills and
personalities are valued.
