While our team is staying safe at home, we are still utilizing our resources the best we can. This weekend our team began 3D printing emergency face shields. Our files are from sabinlab.com and check out 3dprint.nih.gov for more resources. #covid19 #covidsupport #togetherwerise #lovehendo #hcps #forceforchange #bgchendersoncounty - #1225gorillas 
Reposting From @first_official_ ----- Dear friends, colleagues & partners, It is with deep disappointment that I share an update on the immediate suspension of the current FIRST season and the cancellation of both Championship events. This decision has been made based on guidance from the World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control and state and local health officials, as well as the declaration of states of emergency across many states/countries, the ever-expanding travel restrictions for schools, and in light of developments over the past 24 hours. The health and safety of our community is our top priority, so we have decided to suspend all season play across all Programs worldwide, effective immediately, including the cancellation of both FIRST Championship events. Please know that FIRST Championship registration fees will be refunded. This difficult decision was grounded in FIRST’s commitment to put the health and safety of our community above all else. During this challenging time, we have been working closely with our program delivery partners (PDPs) and event organizers around the world to navigate and mitigate the risks to our community due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). As a result, many of our events in the United States and around the world have been canceled or postponed, including more than half of all future FIRST Robotics Competition events. We acknowledge and appreciate the thousands of teams, parents, mentors, coaches and volunteers who have poured their hearts and souls into this season, and we share your disappointment. The mission of FIRST has always been to inspire young people to be science and technology leaders and innovators, and we continue to be deeply committed to this mission. We know that you will have questions, and we will provide answers in the following days and weeks as we navigate what has been an unprecedented time. Sincerely, Larry Cohen, President of FIRST 
From FIRST NC. I am writing to share the hugely disappointing news that as a result of the evolving Covid-19 situation and the recent announcement by the UNC system to ban all events greater than 100 people on any UNC campus, the ECU and the UNC Asheville District Events have been postponed. The new dates for the ECU and UNCA District Events have not yet been set, though it will occur after the FIRST Championship in April. . We recognize that teams have put an enormous amount of work into preparing for this event, and we regret having to share such disappointing news. We are working closely with FIRST to determine the best way forward for all of our teams during this challenging time. . Please stay tuned as we continue to assess the situation and make determinations on how best to proceed. The health and safety of our teams and volunteers is of utmost importance to us. . Stay healthy! Marie E. Hopper President - FIRST North Carolina 
We finished strong at the UNC Pembroke Event. Team 1225 was the captain of alliance 1. We were eliminated in the semifinals but we still had a ton of fun! We are also bringing home the Innovation in Control Award. Thank you to our alliance partners, Team 2682 & 8304. We couldn't have made it without you! #1225gorillas #team1225 #firstnc #omgrobots #firstinspires --- @boneyardrobotics_2682 @first_northcarolina
