Re: 2005 IRI Thank you's and Congrats
I just want to think the IRI planning committee for letting us run the first ever open to the public VEX tournament at the IRI this year. Thanks Andy
Baker, Libby Ritchie, Chris Fultz, and everyone else who made IRI possible.
Thanks David Kelly and Josh Hambright for all your help with the IndianaFirst website and the press releases.
I also want to thank ALL the teams who participated, esp the ones who came from out of state, and the ones who built their robots the day of the tournament. Thanks a ton to John Wanniger from team 22 "bots 4 life" from WI for getting us all the match scheduling software we needed.
I want to give a GIANT thanks to Tony Norman from IFI for making the VEX tournament possible, and being our celebrity field starter. I also want to give a BIG thanks to Dave Lavery for hanging out with us and starting our finals matches.
And of course, I want to think the RoboEducators, because without them none of this would have been possible. Thanks Dan Ward, Marci Cochran, Luke Ward, Ken Berry, Steve Bardonner, and everyone else working with the RoboEducators.
I also want to thank everyone else who worked behind the scenes, built robots, came and watched the matches, cheered on our central Indiana vex champions, and made this a GREAT success.
