Dave's
thread tells the story.
Please pay attention to Andy Baker's post (post 17) regarding the length of time that had passed between invitations extended to a FIRST team to come visit the White House. At the time, this was a big deal for all of the teams invited, FRC, FVC, and FLL teams - and for all of us celebrating this moment in FIRST's history. It was great and it gave us hope that more invitations would be extended in the future.
Carol's post (post 30) and John's (post 31) talk more about their adventure. Can you IMAGINE the MOE cheer at the White House?
Enjoy,
Jane
Edit: Here is
116's visit to the White House. Here's the awesome Miss Daisy,
FRC 341. I would surely love to be able to post more photos of teams here for your viewing enjoyment. Surely, I would.
