Re: Great story about hardwork and dedication
The true spirit of integrity dwells within Wings Of Fire. We see it in the mentors and we see it in the students. Consistently. I have never failed to be moved beyond words by the actions shown and the stories told.

Daveonna, I'm sorry that happened to you and I'm glad you were able to return to the Dome and that you are ok. Your teammate had your back and that must be an incredible feeling, having helped to get the team so far with your hard work. Ricky - dedicated practice and commitment with the very real possibility of no payoff - sets a bar very high as a role model for your fellow members of the FIRST community. We can all learn a great deal from your dedication and from this story of valor and triumph.

One thing that I have learned from talking with your mentors is that they love to talk about their students. They love it. This is a beautiful reason - why.

All the best, 51. Rock on. Congratulations on a job well done.
Jane
