ANNOUNCEMENT - can.schoolnet.math.sr
*******************
On Monday, April 6th from 5:00-6:00 PM EST, a satellite broadcast of the 1998
FIRST National High School Robotics Competition (see www.usfirst.org) will be
shown at participating Pontiac-GMC dealers in the United States.  There is no
cost for the broadcast.

The FIRST Competition features head to head matches between radio-controlled
robots from teams made up of high schools and corporate sponsors from around
the country.  The exciting matches are the culmination of weeks of intense work
on strategy, design, manufacturing, and practice by the students, teachers, and
corporate engineers.  Students experience the excitement of engineering and
competition, and they come away with the feeling that science, math, and
technology are fun.  Over 200 teams are competing in FIRST for 1998.

The annual competition is open to all pre-college schools and sponsors in North
America.  The broadcast is an exciting way to learn first-hand about FIRST!

The April 6th broadcast is made possible by the Huskie Brigade (one of the
teams competing).  The Huskie Brigade is from Pontiac Northern High School, and
is sponsored by General Motors Powertrain.  The broadcast is being made in
partnership with Pontiac-GMC Division of General Motors and their dealers.

district, school, or teacher who may be interested in the competition or in
starting a team for next year.
