On behalf of the committee, and the other volunteers - we can't thank you enough for all that 125 does. We appreciate it, so much. Congrats on the win, Brando.
(Note: On top of all that 125 gives to Boston, I'd also like to thank 229 and 1511 for bringing out extra people just for the sake of volunteering - it was so great to have you all!)

The brilliant smiles (and sometimes tears!) on teams' faces as they came through the award lines. The outstanding group of volunteers that make Boston go, whom I have been privileged to get to know over the past years. It has been an incredible, rewarding, humbling experience to be a part of the Boston Regional, and I can't thank all of you enough for being a part of our event and making it worth every bit of stress. I will miss it.

Mikell, we will miss you so.
Please come back to visit us someday. Who else will I have to be snarky with behind the scorer's table? Nobody will ever match up to you. You have made my experience as a committee-member so welcoming and fun. I know I wouldn't still be here if it weren't for your encouragement and support.

This was my fifth year as Volunteer Coordinator here in Boston, and I'd just like to take a second to thank every single volunteer who came out to help. I have never been prouder of "my crew".
I got so much positive feedback about volunteers, both overall as a team, as well as specific names and actions - the GP was in full force this weekend at Boston and I appreciate it so much. Making this a good show for our teams is dependent almost entirely on the volunteers - you are the face of our event and we love how awesome you all are.
Thanks for coming out, and we hope to see you next year!
