That, and we've really really enjoyed all the activities we've participated in this year
I'm quite hurt that a not very active member of the team (who isn't an operator btw either..) has come on here and posted that sort of thing, I hope everybody hasn't been given a bad impression of our team, we're all very nice really
I hope you have been building a portfolio. I don't see anything wrong with that. The process of building documentation of all your team's doing with the intention of a chairman's award application helps focus on chairman like behavior.

All teams have less than active members who aren't operators, and who don't quite get the concept of the chairman's award. They are in process too.

I can't imagine a team with only less than active members who aren't operators, so I don't assume the whole team has the same opinion as one member.

Hope to see you at nationals. Intrigued and tickled to hear you guys are working hard at spreading the FIRST program in UK. We are always rooting for our international members, and dreaming of some day attending a regional overseas.
