Oh when too sleep...
Thanks to all the volunteers at the district! Your Gracious support of your time and efforts make all of this possible.
Always Kudos to Tom Nader and his lovely wife too. Congrats to Ms. Renee Wirsing I would have never guessed she was a rookie, looked to be a seasoned pro by Saturday.
Congrats to 288 and picking a great alliance of 68, 4819. I always love to watch 68 hit something, and I appreciated it wasn't us.
I think this is the first time we finished 1st overall, it was an amazing run... Except for a slight misstep on the human planer in the safety zone, it was almost undefeated... Wow, I did not think that was even a possibility at the start.
Hats off to our competition to the south, 302 Lake Orion, they made that first pick really, really tough. The day before our competition, I got to celebrate their driver's and our driver's Eagle Court of Honor as they are in the same troop. Pretty special week, pretty special team. Congrats on the Engineering Inspiration.
Thank you to team 66, we held the high score for much of the competition while we played a bot short.
Thanks to the Killer Bees, it's a tough game, I am sure a little hive time and you will be a force to contend with at States. Thank you to the 5203 that turned out to be a great golden ticket team, a perfect inbounder, and a soft touch pass.
Congrats to the 5155 Ubly Bearcats, our long distance rookie mentor-ship team. This team has so much heart, work ethic and creativity that they can not be stopped. Congrats on the Rookie All Star award, see you at States. Hope your success shows the community what a great program you have started, and you get the support you need for the program to take hold.
Thanks to all the judges that donated their time to support FIRST, and thank you for finding us worthy of the Chairmen's award.
I have posted many photos to the team facebook page, I will probably be thinning out the lot later in the season. So if there is something there you like, they are all available in full resolution for download.
