Thank you

Although I was dissapointed that team 933, Christian Life, did not receive the Chairmans Award. I feel that the spirit of FIRST was shown greatest through them. They started up interest in FIRST in our small little town of Winnebago, They mentored us, gave classes to us, and were always there to help us. During the regional, I have never seen such true sportsmanship, as team 933 showed. They were constanly there to help us and support us throughout the regional. Even though they were behind schedule on thier robot and were having trouble holding a tetra, they were always checking on us and making sure everything was ok. They would congratulate our victories, even if it was a loss for their team. Whenever we won an award, they would come down to the playfield with us, shaking our hands and congratulating us. Team 1625, Winnovation, would not be here if it was not for them
