Jeremy - congrats .. I missed this thread last week. I saw the awards page when you won and have been smiling ever since!

Ian Mackenzie won today in Waterloo. I can't think of a more deserving mentor. Over the past few years I've had the chance to work directly with some awesome people. Ian is perhaps the most incredible combination of intelligence, humility, and work ethic I've ever met. Congrats!

It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Congratulations, Jason! (He's also one of the tallest Woodie Flowers winners.)

If you don't recognize his name, he posts on CD as "dtengineering".

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

Congratulations Jason, Lonnie and Marty. I agree with Rich, Ian is also a very deserving mentor. Congratulations to you all. We have some stellar Woodie Award mentors this year.

I would like to congratulate a beloved mentor of FRC 922, Mrs. Laura Rodriguez, who was awarded the WFFA at Lone Star 2008.
She is an excellent role model for all of us and I'm so very happy for her.
Congratulations Laura!

I would also like to congratulate Tonya Scott, a very big dreamer and person who makes good things happen, from FRC 476, who was awarded the WFFA at the inaugural Oklahoma City regional. Tonya was also awarded the Outstanding Volunteer Award.

Hope you come back to earth soon, Tonya! :)

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

Thank you all very much for the kind words. The team had conspired to keep me from knowing of the nomination so it was a huge surprise. The award was doubly special as my wife, Cindy, was at the event (pressed into service as a mini-van driver). It was her very first FRC awards ceremony, at her very first regional.

I had been considering going to Atlanta along with a couple of our FTC teams from BC, and this has given me the nudge I needed to make the leap and go. I'm really looking forward to the chance to meet some of the people that I have only met on line so far.

Thank you,

Jason

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

Dear Jeremy, you are my hero. Thanks for all the help you have given us (1002 and 2415) in the past 5 years. You have been a mentor for me since I was a freshman in high school and are a big reason I am a mentor in college now. Thanks and congrats.

Congratulations to Bruce Newendorp from Team 525. For those of you who haven't met Bruce yet, he is the quiet guy that has been in their pit for many years. He is one of the midwest's great mentors who work to give the students on their team the best experience they can. If you are in Atlanta, stop by 525's pit and meet another great WFA award winner.
