| Hello Teams! The time is upon us to register to compete with those robots you have been working on since September!
Please see the above links for the 2011 registration form with hotel information and the FIRST participation form for every coach/mentor and team member that must be completed and submitted at the regional. Please fax the registration as soon as possible to 307-268-2051 as we make arrangments for food, tshirts, and other FIRST items.
We will have a registration booth for you to get the regional schedule and to submit the participation forms when you arrive in January. We will be providing lunch to assist with keeping the event on schedule. Judge interviews will be in the morning, along with practice matches, so please come prepared and on time.
We have the opportunity to provide tshirts from the event again this year, but we encourage your team to express their individuality with their own creative "team uniform"!
We will have the official field set up for one last hurrah before the regional on Dec. 11th, at the Casper College Energy Institute, 10-2 pm. We hope to see you there! |

Mission Statement
Wyoming FIRST Tech Challenge is dedicated to providing students in grades 8-12th the opportunity to design, build, program and compete with robots in the FIRST program. Students will integrate science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), gracious professionalism and demonstrate community involvement.
Program Description
The FIRST program www.usfirst.org, is active in Wyoming with over 80 FIRST Lego League teams, over 10 FIRST Tech Challenge teams, and 2 FIRST Robotics Competition teams. The FIRST Program dovetails these teams as follows:
- Jr. FLL Grades K-3
- FLL Grades 4-8
- FTC Grades 8-12
- FRC Grades 9-14
The Wyoming FLL has over 1,600 students involved and continues to grow. Wyoming FIRST Tech Challenge’s goals are to provide the next venue in this STEM oriented program and provide a local opportunity for students to compete at a regional level.
Wyoming FIRST Tech Challenge is made possible by the generosity of Central Wyoming BOCES and the many volunteers who love to support our youth.
