First Tech Challenge, or FTC, will hold a robotics competition in Knoxville next week.

Students in Grades 7 through 12 will present robots they’ve created that will have to complete specific tasks and requirements. Team captain Allyson Bailey says it’s a fast-paced and entertaining event.

The FTC Robotics meet will take place on Tuesday, December 2nd at the Marion County Extension Office beginning at 6:30pm. The event is free and open to the public.
