Re: Courtesy during awards.

Absolutely excellent points. Here in San Diego, Team Paradox 2102 and Devil Duckies 1266 are real models of spirit during our ceremonies.

As to who should go up to receive awards, I'm all for having the whole team, students and mentors certainly deserve recognition for their collective work. What does occasionally get to me is when a large team also brings up all the parents and younger siblings as well; I'd much prefer the emphasis be on the participating students.

One amazing display of GP at the Los Angeles regional this year, when team 597 won Chairman's, team 599 modified their giant "599" sign to read "597" - that was fantastic.
