We encourage all parents to join us when possible so that they get to meet other parents and students on the team. Parents who meet other parents and see what the team does are more excited about the program and find that they can do lots of things to help out on the team.

Particularly important is joining us for the Kickoff event in January. Families can come and see the new game, meet other parents and students, meet Mentors, and also see some of the things that the team is working on.

Ways to help:

• Bring food - During the build season parents usually bring in food for the students and mentors. Click the MealTrain logo below to sign up and help. In addition, you can help bring smaller snacks instead of meals to the meetings. We have plates, napkins, cups, and cutlery so there is no need to bring those. We encourage students to bring their own reusable set that can be washed and stored in the shop.

• Become an approved driver - We sometimes need parent volunteers to drive members to different events. If you are interested in doing so, follow the steps here (link coming soon).

• Become a volunteer - Check out FIRST Volunteers for more info.

• Become a mentor - Talk to one of our Lead Mentors for more info.
