Re: Award Recognition for Non-STEM Mentors in FRC

Chairman's Award
Engineering Inspiration
Entrepreneurship Award
Team Spirit Award
Imagery Award
Because those are team awards, and are often student driven, with mentor help.

The WFA recognizes and singles out the engineering mentor for their contributions. I have previously thought of pushing FIRST toward creating an award just like this, especially since my mom, Kathie K., is one of the co-founders of NEMO. I already have a letter written that I will likely send to FIRST in support of this petition.
