We hope you enjoyed reading the Meet FIRST Chesapeake Sponsored by PWC profiles and playing our Educated Guess game this spring and summer.
Each week approximately 700 of our volunteers and team members read the profiles and more than 200 Educated Guesses were submitted! Thank you for playing!
The winner of our grand prize $200 Amazon gift card was Kimberly Meza. Congratulations!
Thank you to our sponsor

- FRC "refund policies" will not be available in September. Here is the official statement from FIRST Headquarters: "We are reviewing accommodations which may include payment terms but are not committed to a change in policy. We are working on accommodations for season disruption with more information available in September. It is not guaranteed that this includes payment terms."
- FRC COVID Decision Matrix was not developed nor vetted by FIRST HQ. Based upon our 2021 FTC decision matrix, this is a draft developed by FIRST Chesapeake as a potential planning resource.
The next Town Hall Sponsored by Accenture Federal will be October 26th at 6pm.
