| FIRST Robotics team 1699 meets at Bacon Academy High School in Colchester, CT.
The Robocats started in 2005 under the direction of Keith Deslandes and the sponsorship of Dominion Nuclear Power.
Our team has been to the Hartford Regional, the Boston Regional and the championships in Atlanta, GA. Though we still qualify as a
rookie team, we know what we're doing. We wish the best of luck to all the teams in the upcoming FIRST 2009 season!

| What is FIRST? FIRST (For the Inspiration and Recognition of Science
and Technology) was founded by Dean Kamen in 1989. This is a non-profit organization which focuses
on spreading the word that math, science and technology are essential in our society and can be fun
as well. The league focuses heavily on sportsmanship rather than winning. Though being a champion is
a high achievement, the highest award in the FIRST league is the Chairman's Award, awarded to the
team with the best representation of FIRST spirit. For more info, click our FIRST logo to go to the
