WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE EVENT:
The Hellgate Elementary Robotics Club is seeking volunteers to judge research projects for the FIRST Lego League (FLL) qualifying tournament on Saturday, January 25, 2025.
FLL is a global organization where elementary and middle school students build robots from Legos, program them to complete missions, and work on a research project.
This year’s theme is “Submerged,” where students have explored sea exploration challenges. Each team will present their findings and proposed solutions in a brief 5-minute presentation, followed by a 5-minute demonstration of their robot and its programming/design journey. During the presentation, judges will have the opportunity to ask questions.
Judging involves completing a quick rubric and offering any feedback you’d like. You’ll be paired with one other judge in each session.

Event Date: Saturday, January 25th
