FIRST in Alabama is looking for several volunteers for the Rocket City Regional. I have listed the date and location and process for signing up to volunteer below.
Just as a few notes:
-
FIRST events are all free and open to the public! Feel free to come to events as volunteers or spectators and bring your family! Teams are always giving away trinkets and buttons to spectators.
-
Volunteers receive volunteer shirts and breakfast/lunch at our events.
-
Most of our events run on a schedule of around 7AM-5PM, but this can vary some, and we can assign volunteers to specific shifts if they are not available for the full day.
-
Dress comfy/casual - Think jeans and tennis shoes (closed toe/heel shoes are required) to go with your volunteer t-shirt.
Wednesday, March 12 through Saturday, March 15 - FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Rocket City Regional at Von Braun Center, South Hall, 700 Monroe St SW, Huntsville, AL 35801

Volunteers who are 18+ will have to do the FIRST Youth Protection Policy background check before they can be assigned to a volunteer role. That takes a couple of days to clear, so you will want to fill it out ASAP.
