One piece of advice: start succession planning early. Your goal should be to have a strong enough pipeline built up that the program can still be successful once you graduate.
One question: does F4 have a website? A cursory google search for "F4 FIRST Robotics Competition" brings up some CD and reddit posts, but no website explaining the mission and goals for F4. It would also be interesting to see who is on your board and who your members are.
Again, Good luck!

As Asid said we are actively working on how to prevent F4 from well crumbling after I leave. There are also plenty of other very important members that will be graduating in 2017.
To start I will actually be staying in the chat for a bit after I graduate. If we do not have anyone who can produce the show technically I will also assist with that but the idea is over next summer to transition someone else to doing everything I do.
We are currently actively working on a website. It should be done sometime in the coming weeks.
As for the board members the list is public here it is
Dan Howanetz from Team 708 - Hatters Robotics
Dikshant Sharma from Team 226 - The Hammerheads
Grace Rosenvall from Team 2122 - Team Tators
Nick Krichevsky from Team 5202 - NewRo Bots
and Smiti Shah from Team 2869 - The Regal Eagles
I am also on the board.
We had around 13 people apply for the board position and then voted from there.
The board members are very diverse. 2 of them have actually never been on a show. Although they are both signed up to be on soon.
Thanks for the encouragement. We are constantly working on improving our show which I think is apparent if you take a look at the production quality boost from episode 1 to now.
