[Joe Ross]

Congratulations to Ric Roberts for honored as one of the Southern California Volunteers of the Year.

Thanks for working with the Beachbots (330) for so many years.
Thanks for working with Raytheon to provide money and engineers to so many teams.
Thanks for taking a leadership role with SCRRF.
Thanks for volunteering at CalGames.
Thanks for getting me an interview with Raytheon, and even more so that it coincided with the LA regional.


Thank you for continually spreading the spirit of FIRST and inspiring many people!

I'd like to echo Joe's praising of Ric. Ric and his son Sean are two of the nicest people I've ever met. I missed not being able to see them down in LA this year. Congrats to Ric as well as Nancy and Jill on their very deserved Volunteer of the Year Awards in LA.

I'd like to add my own thanks. The award is so very well-deserved. As a side note, thanks to Sean and Ric for a late night drive, during the LA Regional in 2003. ;)
