First Robotics Competition

The FIRST Robotics Competition is an exciting, multinational competition that teams professionals and young people to solve design and engineering problems in an intense and competitive way. The program is a life-changing, career-molding experience and, a lot of fun.
In 2004, the competition will reach over 30,000 student with more than 1,300 teams in 24 competitions. Teams come from Canada, Brazil, the U.K., and almost every U.S. state. The competitions are high-tech spectator sporting events, the result of lots of focused brainstorming, real-world teamwork, dedicated mentoring, project timelines, and deadlines.
The Events
In their first year of competition, The Southside Surgeons will compete against twelve other rookies teams at the Midwest Windy City Regional at Welch-Ryan Arena on the campus of Northwestern University, March 27th - 29th, 2004.

National competition will be held in April at the Sun Dome in downtown Atlanta, Georgia

Gracious Professionalism
Sharing is a big part of the FIRST experience. It is called Gracious Professionalism. It embodies a spirit of selflessness which is a trait that should be nurtured in people of all ages. At Fenger Academy, we ask three questions to insure Gracious Professionalism.
1. If it is the truth, is it fair to all concerned,
2. Will it build good and better frienships, and
3. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?

This is the creed that The Southside Surgeons live by.
