It’s not a goodbye yet, but still a bittersweet announcement from FIRST President @don_bossi.
Some personal news: Despite my ongoing passion for the @FIRSTweets mission, for a variety of reasons I have made the difficult decision to retire from my role as President of FIRST during FY20. I remain as excited as ever about the future of FIRST. firstinspires.me/7T8f50uZs39
