Re: Team 900 Role Call
Oh no… it’s back. :ahh: This thread ought to be repurposed so it can be used by other teams (or at least not spam the front page). I’m just gonna repeat myself from last year:

However, teams (and, by extension, mountains) outside the US aren’t as important to FIRST, because...
