Shazbot Awards

What it takes to win an award in FIRST:

To win an award it takes dedication from the early beginning to the bitter end. If there is enough dedication than the sweet fruits of labor pay off in magnificent ways. When a judge says “WOW!” at their first glance of what you have done, then you have done something great, whether it be gracious professionalism, a business plan that keeps track of everything, or helping spread the seeds of FIRST to all fertile soil. Our team has only been able to pull this off a limited number of times with the skill of our leaders, and the difficult work our entire team has put forth.
