Bayou was an exceptional event, I hadn't been here since it's inception in 2007 and it has now become a really great event.

Thank you to all the event planners and support staff you made it such a great event to work.

Congratulations to all the teams your awards and accolades were well deserved. With 15 rookies so many of you took time away from your own team and robot to really lift up the quality of play and teach the rookies the ways of FIRST. Bayou was a shinning example of coopertition at work.

A few special thanks

Team 456 Siege Robotics - Bayou would not work with out you guys, from field setup to key volunteers (Chuck, Amy, Eddie, etc..) you all make the event work. Your gracious professionalism award is extremely well deserved every one of you was willing to go above and beyond to support other teams during the event.

Team 2080 - I first met you all at Alamo and you were a fantastic team to work with. You pulled down the field in record time making the lives of the volunteer crew so much easier at Bayou. Thank you so much. Your team spirit award is also well deserved. Even after every other team was gone and the judges were no where to be found you all were doing step routines in the entry way before boarding the bus. A great team and true testament to team spirit.

Thank you every who worked at making Bayou such a fantastic event, and I can't wait to return next year.
