Re: 2011 Florida Regional

Ditto the thanks to all the volunteers and sponsors. You guys are all there every year making this happen and we really, really appreciate it. You had a really stressful situation with the wifi interference, coms etc. but got it up and running. I hope you guys don't have to deal with these gremlins in the future. You ran a friendly professional ship. Great MC's Dan, Barry and George, you guys are awesome. Thanks to all the judges for the reviews of everyones hard work. We enjoyed having all the out of towners, 597, 341, 103, 1027, 2564 and 3549. So many rookies this year, thank you JC Penny... Wow...

233 - Guys.. Can you put the thing together before you ship it please? We had our usual scout meeting until 12:30am Friday night about the pink "improvement" factor. I bet other regionals don't have to deal with this because you come ready for business. Well our scouts were right and you guys rocked the house. It seemed like when we were off you were on. If we both played a perfect match we would have broke all the score records. Love you guys!

108 - Arefin, I really appreciate the compliment. I'm sure Andy and I feel the same way when I say it's an honor to have the privilege to coach, be part of and work with such great teams/people.

341 - Great to have you all, good folk and we hope you come back. Awesome machine, our scouts were torn on picking you.

103 - Congrats on the Engineering and Inspiration award, and to Jack for the Woody! You guys rocked and I loved the minibots.

180, 1902 and 3149 - Great job and awesome teams to come down to. Great minibots 180 and 3149, and all of you were great tube scorers. Us Florida teams are tough to beat, look out Einstein.

3242 - Wow, a second year team wins Chairmans, that's hard to do with teams like 79, 1902, 1523 ,1557 etc, etc, etc around. Keep up the hard work!

3622, 3520 - Great people on board starting these teams. You guys are in good hands, I expect great things!

And thank you Zach for the compliments, 1592, 744 and 801 was a scary alliance. You guys had some awesome tubeage.

945, great machine, very consistent with auto and logos

1251 you guys were incredible, I feel bad about the watchdog issues, without that I know you would have went all the way, I hope you get that worked out. and thank you Drew.
