Bright and early on the morning after the Boston Marathon, help send off the Newton LigerBots on a marathon of their own. Newton’s FIRST Robotics team begins its trek to the World Championships in St. Louis bright and early on Tuesday morning and the numbers are staggering.

47 people
40 Hours of driving
7 minivans
4 days on the road
2 U-Haul trailers
1 Dream

We need your help in sending this team off with a smile. Come join us at 6:30 am on Tuesday, April 21st at Newton South High School, 140 Brandeis Road. We’ll be waving orange pompoms, putting LigerTails on the cars, writing messages on the windows and sending them down the road.

Come out and show your Newton pride, then follow us on Instagram, Twitter and our own blog.

As a reminder, the LigerBots earned an invitation to the FIRST World Championships after being one of four teams from New England chosen to compete for the Chairman’s Award, the top award offered by FIRST. The team is also ranked 10th out of 175 registered teams in New England.

Even if you can’t join the send off, please show your Liger spirit by donating HERE.
