Thanks to the hard work and dedication of FIRST teams throughout the Eastern region, the Annual Miracle of Reading Education (MORE) Used Book Drive netted over 6,000 lbs. of books for Success Won’t Wait this weekend!
The event, which is sponsored by First State Robotics (a Delaware team in the FIRST organization), is traditionally the largest book drive of the season for Success Won’t Wait. And this year was no exception!
The teams worked incredibly hard to collect high quality books that will be redistributed by Success Won’t Wait in a variety of community outreach programs throughout the country.
The team results are as follows:
- Book Drive Winner – Team #1712 (over 3000 lbs)
- Book Drive Runner-Up #1 – Team #316 (over 950 lbs)
- Book Drive Runner-Up#2 – Team #1089 (over 930 lbs)
A huge thank you goes to John Larock for coordinating the many Event Staff volunteers who made the day so successful!
