Hi All,

A friend asked me to forward this to the list...he thought some
members of the Noisebridge community might be interested.

Want to have fun with robots and middle schoolers? You're invited to
come and see this or even better we need you to help judge or ref our
San Francisco tournament. If you're interested please read on...

These next two weekends there are over 20 tournaments going on in the
bay area. Even if you can't make SF Saturday the 20th of November
there are plenty of other great events visit to possibly volunteer at.

What's this all about?
You may have heard about the wholly volunteer based international
competition started by Dean Kamen (Segway inventor amongst other things)
to get kids excited about science and technology:

There are several age groups from elementary, to middle to high
schoolers. I'm with middle schoolers designing and programming Lego
NXT robots to complete lego missions in under 2.5 minutes coupled
with some amazing innovative research.

Please email all your friends and associates to come enjoy this event
and hopefully also volunteer to be a judge or referee. You need no
prior knowledge or experience.

Here's the direct link for San Francisco on Saturday the 20th of
November volunteer signup page:

Thank you all so much for sending this out to your friends and associates.
