Our team will not be competing at the New England District Championship. However, we do have the very special opportunity to compete for the Rookie All Star award. We're going to have a presentation on Saturday morning to a couple of judges. We will also have a booth in the lobby of the Harrington auditorium, showcasing our team, our outreach, and our sponsors. So wish us luck, and we'll be wishing all team competing good luck as well!!
