This is awesome! Although none of our mentors got them this year and were registered. When did you receive yours?

My wife and I got ours in the mail yesterday.

Ok thanks! I will be eagerly checking my mail in the next week. I look forward to getting my pin every year. :)

I must not have been a Good mentor this year. I got the Certificate but no pin. I am now a sad panda. :(

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

Mine wasn't in the white envelope that the certificate was in. It was in the large manila envelope and I had to dig around a bit to find it.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

Just opened mine.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

I have discovered that only one of our mentors got a pin.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

I got a manila envelope yesterday with a certificate and a pin. My husband got a white envelope with a certificate and no pin. Interesting.....

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

It was even lined with bubble wrap.

I got a 2012 certificate and pin at school -- frc team address. At home I got a 2011 certificate and no pin. I help mentor a new ftc team at my daughter's school -- that might be what that is for. Both just say FIRST neither says FRC or FTC.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

Mine came today ,will wear it at LA , Seattle and in Vegas.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

Love it! Right into my collection!

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

I didn't get my pin and this makes me a saaaad panda...
is there anything I can do to see if I can get one.
I'm not sure on the requirements to get one, I'm a new mentor this year and would like to receive a pin to add to all my other pins.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

I also did not get a pin or certificate. This is my first year as a mentor.

Was everybody's pin and certificate sent to the school, or did people receive them at their home address?

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

Mine came last Friday. Seems like they are spreading the sending of these out over quite a long time.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

in years past, I haven't received mine until after the season. my guess is they send these out over a very lengthy period of time and will just require some patience. at least that's my expectation.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

Alright, thanks for letting me know that they don't send them out all at once.

I just saw a bunch of posts about people receiving theirs, followed by a period without posts. It made me wonder if it was just me that did not receive it.

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

This is AWESOME!!!!!!!! All FIRST mentors deserve recognition for all the hours of hard work that they put into making a difference in the lives of their students. Thanks for believing in us. Thanks for taking the challenge and staying with us every single step of the way. This pin may seem insignificant to other people, but it represents the passion for FIRST and the love that mentors have for their students. But pin or not, you are already OUR HEROS! <3

Re: pic: 2012 Coach/Mentor Appreciation Pin
 

If anyone really wants a pin, PM me.
I get one every year and never wear it.
I'm not a part of FIRST for the pins.
