Due to low participation, we have to cancel the Jr. FLL Expo scheduled on June 6 at St. John's College HS in Washington, D.C.

If you are an older Jr. FLL team moving on to FLL for the 2015 season, please consider attending the FLL Informational Session about "How to Start an FLL team" on Saturday, June 6, at 10:30 am in the Microsoft Store at Pentagon City Mall in Arlington, VA.   This free event is a great way for you to learn more about FLL.  The 2015 FLL Trash Trek Challenge season will be officially start on August 25, 2015.  To register for this FLL informational session, go to:
https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-start-a-first-lego-league-team-tickets-16951487355

Otherwise, if your team is not aging out of Jr. FLL, we hope that you'll return for the 2015-2016 Jr. FLL Waste Wise Challenge season.  Registration for 2015-2016 Jr. FLL will start in early August.

Thank you for being a part of FIRST.
