Volunteering at Events
We are very fortunate in the FIRST® communities to have so many wonderful dedicated volunteers. Without them all these programs would not be possible. This page is broken up into various topics. Please use it to help educate yourself on the volunteering opportunities. If you are new to FIRST or have not volunteered for an event please check out the roles and consider it. We believe you will not regret it on moment. For those who can help as judges, it is a wonderful way to see the behind the scenes process.
