  *FIRST LEGO League is pleased to introduce Text-Based Building Instructions for SUBMERGED.  These instructions are intended to support individuals with visual impairments and FIRST® community members who prefer textual instructions. Created by Bricks for the Blind, a non-profit organization that brings the joy of building LEGO® sets to blind people, this initiative is another step to make FIRST programs as accessible as possible for our community. Please note that these building instructions are in beta and may be adjusted during the season.
