[Keith Chester]

Have I ever. I've spent the past three years of my robotics career dedicated to starting rookie teams and spreading FIRST throughout NJ, and we've had massive success. There is nothing quite like starting a rookie team and watching them take off and truly GET the point of FIRST. This is why we started RINOS (Rookies In Need Of Support).

Congratulations on your rookie year, and having someone to help already! PM or e-mail me if you want help/resources/ideas on how to help this team get started - I'd love to be of assistance. Remember- you have to push for them to get organized and interested NOW for them to be best prepared for NEXT year.
