I would like to congratulate the mentor of FRC 33, Jim Zondag, who was awarded the WFFA at GLR 2008.
He is an excellent role model for all of us.
Congrats

Congratulations to Mark McLeod of team 358 for winning Woodie Flowers at the Long Island Regional. Mark, Ernie and I can't thank you enough for all the help you have given us and our team over the years. You truly deserve this honor!

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

Did anyone get a photograph of all the past and present WFA winners lined up at the Boston Regional (including WF)?
What an incredible line-up!

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

you guys forgot one of my mentors......Marc Rogers team 987:)

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

Congratulations Mark.
This took my breath away!

You have such a gift of sharing FIRST with those around you, mentoring without even trying. Your gift of: wisdom, experience, humor, and positive attitude, is something I wish we could package and distribute to every rookie team. It would keep them going when the going gets tough.

With great respect,
Jane

Congratulations to Ms. Olwen Sigsworth of Team 1547 (Waldo) for her WFA; it could not have been awarded to a more deserving person.

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

Congratulations to Mr. Joseph Troy of team 357 on winning the Philadelphia WFA award. He is extremely deserving for all the hard work and energy he puts into our program and into FIRST as well. He serves as an inspiration for us all!

P.S. I don't think I have ever seen him that shocked...

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

Mark! CONGRATS! A VERY well-deserved honor! :D

Re: Regional Woodie Flowers
 

Mark McLeod is one of those amazing mentors who really keeps students as his first priority. Congratulations Mark, see you in Atlanta. I am truly amazed at all the great mentors who are being recognized this year by their teams. I don't know all of you, but I know your teams.
Congratulations, and looking forward to meeting you in the future.

Thanks!
