Ha! But you've met me now! And I bet your life will never be the same!

Hopefully next year I can coerce my team to register. Though I did enjoy volunteering -- I've always wanted to get up-close and personal on the field... being a mentor, I've never been able to drive a robot in competition (which is as it should be), and this is the next best thing.

I think it went very smoothly considering this was your first time hosting the competition. My only recommendation would be to order more staff shirts.

I also think I sweated off about 15 pounds, but hey, that's environmental factors beyond your control.
