On behalf of team 1939, I would like to thank all the volunteers who helped make this a great regional.

Congratulations to team 3504 Girls of Steel on your Engineering Inspiration award, to the Champions 4256, 868, and 245.

Congratulations also to 4028 The Beak Squad on your Wild Card. You were a wonderful pit neighbor, and we love your robot. Congratulations to 4145 and 3324 for a well played and hard fought elimination round.

Congratulations also to 337 on your Judges award for your humanitarian efforts. I was really touched by how you've been able to help people.

It was a pleasure to meet everyone, and we enjoyed working with you. I hope we see you all again.
