After thirty-one years I retired from General Motors as a welder. I have really enjoyed working with Cyber Blue for the past three years. When I started with the team, they had a MIG welder, but no one knew how to use it. That's how I got involved. From this program, kids experience many real-life problems and learn to solve them. FIRST gives high school students opportunities that I never had as a youth. They learn how to manage their time, experience teamwork and collaborate with a range of personalities. It is my hope that my son will be involved when he is in high school.
