Showcase program
No one tells – or shows – the FIRST story better than FIRST teams! We are raising the bar in showcasing FIRST, and we’re inviting FIRST teams in Western and Central Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia to be an active part of our region’s outreach efforts, gain some recognition for your teams and schools, and hone student marketing and presentation skills in the process.
Congratulations to 2018’s WOW Showcase teams!
These are our teams that have gone above and beyond to spread the message of FIRST to their community.
