Dan,
It has been a great time working with you over the years. In a small way this award recognizes the huge commitment you have to FIRST, to students and to our team. I have learned a lot working with you, thanks for pushing me to help when I can. You are one of those people who will change the face of history by molding young lives and showing by example the way to live one's life. Thanks for everything you do. Congratulations!
Al

Congrats Dan - you deserve this honor so much. You really have evolved into a great announcer.

And, that Fed-Ex (is it Ted or Tom?) doesn't know the half of it.

Dan Green is all over this UFH like Bill Beatty with cheap perfume! (or something like that)

Dan, first of all congratulations! It's very well deserved.

One of the things I really enjoy about Wildstang is how close all of the mentors are. We spend a lot of time together, of course, and we get along really well. A side effect of this is that we joke around a lot, and we're constantly giving each other a hard time. Dan probably ends up on the receiving end of this more than he should. We pretty much constantly make fun of him for his "management" and being the "old guy" (he's not really old but it's fun to tease him about it). The truth is that even though we did change all the locks on our shop to keep him out, Dan handles an enormous amount of behind-the-scenes work and I'm sure the rest of us don't even know the magnitude of it. Keeping a team like ours running inside a large corporation that is constantly trying to cut costs is unbelievably time consuming as many of you from other teams surely know. Dan silently handles all of this red tape and many, many other facets of team management and allows the rest of us to focus on the engineering side of things.

Andy, we prefer to think of this as giving Dan practice for when Lauren gets a little older. We constantly drill him on how to handle heated discussions, sibling/friend in-fighting, and childish stubbornness :).

Anyway, this is a great opportunity for us on the team to say "Thanks, Dan". We definitely don't say it as often as we should. And since we know you're dying to get back to your software roots, I'll check to see how far along the electrical team is with that punch-card interface for the robot controller. :p

Dan - Congratulations and well deserved!
It's unfortunate BMR won't have the pleasure of having you and the rest of Wildstang this year, at least not in person.....
Keep being you...

Dan, your one of the first FIRST faces I came to recognize. Thanks for always keeping the matches announced with great enthusiasm. Also, thanks for all you do with FIRST in general, not just 111.

Congratulations Dan!

As one of my high school friends would always say, "Keep on Truckin' "
