On August 22, 2012, join us at a Detroit Tigers vs. Toronto Blue Jays game for FIRST Robotics Night at Comerica Park. A robot will throw out the "FIRST pitch" and our family of programs will be on exhibition to showcase FIRST to the 30,000+ fans in attendance. Radio and TV coverage too! We need our whole robotics community to be part of the event. Tickets are on sale now: TICKET ORDER FORM. Teams and robots are needed for the demonstrations, contact frogforce503@gmail.com to sign up.
