Wyoming Rookie Team Grants

FIRST LEGO League has awarded a $2000 FIRST Growth grant to Wyoming FLL. The grant is intended to help grow and expand FLL in Wyoming. The Wyoming FLL planning team has determined that we will use the growth grant to reimburse the $200 FLL Registration fee for 10 Rookie teams. Please read below for details.

Number of Grants: Wyoming FLL has ten (10) - $200.00 grants that will be awarded to ten (10) Wyoming Rookie Teams.

Grant Eligibility Requirements:
1) Teams applying for the grant must be a 'rookie' team. Rookie means that the 2009 Smart Move season will be the team's first FLL season. This would not include sites that had a team last year and reform annually to have a team in 2009 with differing members/team name, sorry.
2) Teams must attend AND compete in the 2009 Wyoming FIRST LEGO League Championship to be held on December 4th and 5th, 2009 at the Casper Events Center. Grants funds will be distributed AFTER the competition.
3) Teams must submit an invoice for $200.00 to NCSD after Dec. 5th, 2009

Grant Selection Criteria:
The first 10 teams registered in the FIRST LEGO League registration system (https://gofll.usfirst.org) AND meet the above eligibility requirements will receive the $200 grant. [Since the registration assigns team numbers sequentially, we will award the 10 teams that meet all eligibility requirements and have the lowest team number.]
