If you read the message "
Zone Zeal Pool" you will know that in order to enter the the pool, you have to submit a 100-300 word repsonse to this message. In effect, an essay is "Entry Fee" to be considered as a winner of the pool.
Here is all I am asking for: A positive message about FIRST.
Some examples:
- How someone in FIRST has inspired you.
- How team A helped team B get up and running.
- A positive story about a person on your team
- How you look at XXX differently now.
- How team or person XXX showed the true spirit of FIRST by doing this or that difficult thing for no reward other than that it was the right thing to do.
- This person or team was great because when they did thus and such or acted this way and that.
It does not have to be a story of heroism or theatrics or even particularly original. Just a simple positive message in a few sentences, as earnestly and succinctly told as you are able.
That's it. Not too high of an entry fee, I hope. I would like to get 100's of pool entries. The more entries we get the more fun I think it will be.
Regards,
Joe J.
