I feel ya. I'm going to the University of Delaware next year and while its just 25 minutes from MOE I dont think I could join another team when I am so attached to my own. Since I am relatively close to home (just an hour and half ride by train) I will be helping 433 out with some Chairmans Award stuff and I am sure I will annually return to Drexel for my most favorite regional, however it will definately be hard not being in that drivers station. My family and friends got a real good look at just how addicted to FIRST I am when I tried for quite some time, even up to less than a week before the champs, to find some way down to Atlanta to volunteer. They not suprisingly said no and for me to move on. It was a rude awakening. I know though I will have to still be involved one way or another, mentoring and volunteering most likely, just so long as I can still be a part of FIRST.
