Ingress First Saturday (#IngressFS) events are officially recognized community organized and community run cross-faction Ingress events. While there are individual competitive elements, Ingress First Saturdays are not intended to be faction versus faction events. These events take place on the first Saturday of every month.
The purpose of these events is to gather Agents from a local community in a social setting, have a shared Ingress experience, and provide an opportunity to on-board new players. An Ingress First Saturday is not an alternative for a Mission Day.
Rewards may include but are not limited to AP bonuses equal to the AP the Agent gained during the event and item passcodes. AP bonuses will be granted the week following the event.
Agents will also obtain an #IngressFS medal. Note that the levels of the First Saturday medal are for attending 1, 6, 12, 24, and 36 events for bronze, silver, gold, platinum, and onyx tier, respectively. This medal will not be retroactively applied and will be granted the week following the event.
