FIRST Championship Houston was Amazing!
We didn’t come back home with any trophies this time, but what we did return with will last a lifetime! Our wins were great and our losses mostly close. We nailed our interview, thanks to local Toastmasters International coaching support
We learned a lot, met some incredible people – including Dr. Woodie Flowers! – made some new friends, and saw some spectacular robots.
Congratulations to Palm Harbor FIRST Tech Challenge team Boom Bots for captaining the Championship Winning Alliance!
