MAKE FIRST LOUD EVENTS
We had an absolute blast at the Wy’East Lodge at Timberline on Saturday, May 21st. 12 Oregon FTC Teams made their way up the mountain to compete at our first MAKE FIRST LOUD off-season event. We ran a mini tournament plus we made time for guests to drive the robots, learn about FIRST and we shared our MAKE FIRST LOUD ideas with each other! Look for a video to be release in the near future. Our thanks to our Oregon FTC Volunteers for helping make the event possible and to Tammy Villali at Timberline Lodge for being a gracious and welcoming host.
