Other on team #65, Huskie Brigade, from Pontiac Northern High School and GM Powertrain.



This message is directed towards a special group of people called the Huskie Brigade. However, I am posting it here because I see no better way to show everyone how great I think this group is. I think everybody should know my observations.

The Huskie Brigade is a sponsorship between Pontiac Northern High School and GM Powertrain in Pontiac, Michigan. This team took me on as one of their own this year, despite the fact I was not a graduate of their high school.
I have made unbreakable friendships with the students, teachers, and engineers. Everybody has been so personable and so easy to work with. I find myself talking about the team all the time and how positive it makes me feel in my everyday life to be a part of such a wonderful group. This is not only a group, but a team- in the truest sense of the word, and I am so honored to be a part of it.
We recently have been awarding upstanding members of the team a special award, (you guys know what that is) and I would like to publicly nominate the team as a whole for this award for being an overall outstanding team. Everything you guys do truly lives out your promise to Make a Differnce.

Your friend and teammate,
Erin Lape

Erin-

I think our team is lucky to have you. In my case I learned who you were last year through this forum, so its not a surprise to me to hear about your feelings in this valuable "community."

We have a good mix of experienced and inexperienced people on our team, and someone like you who "gets it" is so important. You are one of the people who are spreading the deep understanding of the FIRST commitment to others.

Way to go, and remember, we're not done yet! )
