Support a FIRST LEGO League Challenge Event.
FIRST events are staffed entirely by volunteers. Roles include organizers, judges, referees, photographers, queuers, MCs and game announcers, AV experts, EMT’s and nurses. Volunteering at an event is a great way to see FIRST up close and personal.  Most FIRST LEGO League event roles do not require any specialized skills or training.

The minimum age for a volunteer is 14 years old. Most roles are best suited to those over 18 years of age or mature high school students. Team affiliated volunteers cannot serve as judge or referee at the event where their team participates, but can still help in other areas.

Support a FIRST LEGO League Challenge Team.
Every team needs a leader but they also benefit from technical mentors such as engineers, programmers, and challenge-specific professionals. Non-technical mentors can help organize food, team attire, and travel.

You can also contact the FIRST LEGO League Challenge Michigan Director to mentor an existing team; your contact information will be shared with teams in your area who may need assistance.
