Re: Veteran Teams Adopting Rookie teams

While my team has never mentored a rookie our rookie year we were mentored. The team that mentored us did several things. First they invited the team to there workspace and filled them in on previous competitions and let them drive robots from previous years. This really gets a rookie team running to see what other highschool students have produced. Then they came down (a three hour drive) to our meetings a couple of times. Let us know how they were doing where we should be and other tidbits that veterans take for granted. Finally during our first regional halfway through friday our drill motors decided to break. Coincidentally their robot was broken at the same time. They came over and worked on our robot.
