Thank you Gavin. We were so surprised to hear lines from our presentation being read and when our Hero Project was mentioned, we couldn't contain our excitement. Even though you guys and Titanium had already earned a 2014 Regional Chairman's Award, we still had tough competition from quality programs such as Liberty (1764), Team Driven (1730) and Broncobots (1987). It just shows how incredibly dedicated the teams in Kansas City are to FIRST.
The Woodie Flowers Award couldn't have been given to a better person. It was so touching to see you give your students a great big hug before coming down to accept the award from Woodie himself. Congrats.
