Community Service Information

Scope

This has been created to provide information on how to successfully organize a Community Service Event. Team 1511 has made the commitment to complete 1,511 thunderbolts before our tenth year. A thunderbolt is when we take the action to help out another FIRST team or in this case the community through service.

Getting Started

Before the team can commit to a community service event and have it placed on the team schedule, it needs to be approved by the leadership team.
