This official FIRST LEGO League Expo Junior is offered through the USRA STEMaction Center, the FLL Jr. Affiliate Partner for Maryland. USRA STEMaction Center delivers exciting science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) activities to K-12 students and builds a local community of support for the programs and participants.

Notes:
(1) The FIRST LEGO League Jr. program requires that all teams registering for an official FLL Jr. Expo are registered as an official team for the current season with FIRST. In addition, all team members participating in the Expo must be signed up online with the team through the FIRST TIMS system, with a completed electronic consent form.

(2) Official Expos require a minimum of 5 FLL Jr. teams to participate. In the event that fewer than 5 FLL Jr. teams register for this Expo, we will work with the teams that have registered to determine whether to change the Expo to an Exhibition (not an official Expo) or to shift teams to a different Expo.

(3) The Expo registration fee must be paid via Credit Card through the Brown Paper Ticket service. A processing fee (less than $2) is added to the base registration cost creating the final registration cost to each team. If you do not have a credit card to use to register your team, please contact USRA STEMaction Center directly for assistance in completing your registration. Do not call Brown Paper Ticket for this purpose.
