Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
The 2013 Finger Lakes Regional was a fantastic event. When our small contingent from Team 1114 left St. Catharines early on Saturday morning, we had no idea we'd be walking into one of the most exciting events in recent memory. This very evenly matched field played at high level throughout the elimination rounds, making for some exhilarating matches.
Thanks to the entire Finger Lakes Regional Planning Committee and all the volunteers for your immense amounts of hospitality. Thanks for inviting down onto the field for the elimination rounds, and letting me be part of the show. Working with Eric and Jondarr was a real treat. It was great to be able to call some of the intense action.
A huge congratulations goes out to my good friends on Team 2809 on winning their first Regional Chairman's Award. This team has gone through a lot of adversity this season, and seeing them overcome it all and reach new heights is absolutely amazing.
