I know this is rough for all of your team and we would love to meet you all. Many rookie teams go through this same dilema, many not being able to attend the nationals at all the first or even second year. Although all of you sound like you are a big part of the team, circumstances just don't allow you to take a big group. Those team mates that get to travel will know full well that there are people left behind that should be with them. That makes it almost as tough on the travel team as those that stay behind. We want your team to join us, but if only a small group can make it then we will know that the rest of you are there in spirit. If you are worried about having enough people to work on the robot, be assured that there are many of us who will gladly help. Let me be the first to offer assistance. If you run into any problems, come and find our pit and ask for help. Don't wait for a small problem to become a big one. Even if you don't have a problem, stop by and say Hi! Our tie dye team shirt is easy to spot, you can ask anyone where our pit is. Good Luck on your first FIRST year!
