Re: Exemplary FIRSTers
I'm gonna have to give my vote to Team 461 - Westside Boiler Invasion. I can't say anything bad about this team. The people are wonderful - they make me feel like I have a second home (or is that third or fourth now???  ). For the past two years, if we (1064) have ever needed anything, Purdue has been there for us (and if they didn't have it, they FOUND it). Their robots are always strong, their animations are funny, their website is award-winning, and they're a past regional Chairman's winner. 461 also gives FIRSTers a place to go after they've graduated where they can give back what they have learned as a mentor.
And oh yeah..."LETS ALL GO NUTS! ROBOTS! ROBOTS!" - it just wouldn't FIRST without that chant (or my new sweatshirt that says that  )
