2016 Chairman's Award Winners

I've put together a spreadsheet for this year's winners on Google Drive. It's almost identical to last year's but with the new events and Districts added, and some small formatting changes. You can find this year's spreadsheets at the bottom of this post.

Of note this year:

Last year I had some fantastic students and mentors help me keep the spreadsheet up to date, in addition to dozens of comments correcting errors and adding information. In particular I'd like to thank Jacob Bendickson, Brendan Marshall, and Karthik Kanagasabapathy for adding information. This year, I am looking for other people to add information. It would be great to have someone from each District area to add information to those events. PM me if you would like to do this for your area.

One of the things I'd really love to do is collect the number of teams submitting at each event. This requires someone at the event who can see the schedule for presentations, so in order to collect that information, I need someone from every event to find that information. If you are able to find that information for your event, please post here or PM me. I am planning to be at the Lake Superior/Northern Lights Regionals, Iowa, and MN North Star/MN 10K Lakes regionals, so I don't need anyone to cover those, but for any other events, we need someone!

I'm also going to do a little Chairman's Preview the Wednesday before each week for Regional and DCMP events, other than this week for Palmetto (sorry!). Unfortunately I'm not omniscient, but my previews will be based on previous years' performance and my knowledge of the teams at each event. It's quite possible I'll miss some stuff, but my goal isn't to predict the winners each week, it is to provide in broad strokes who is likely to be competitive for the award at events, so you don't have to do all the research yourself. If you find yourself missing from my preview, please don't take it personally-- I'm human and I can't cover everyone!

Lastly, best of luck to all teams competing for Chairman's at their events! Submitting for the Chairman's Award is in my opinion a core part of the experience of FRC, and I hope you're learned about yourself and your team by doing it.
