Re: Pink just wouldn't be Pink if it weren't for Mrs. P.

I've been with Team 233 for two years, and I have little doubt that without Mrs. P., the Pink Team would be in deep trouble. Basically, she is the organizing force who makes us a team.

There are students from two schools, but Mrs. P. is the only teacher from either school who is involved in a serious way with the team, and is she ever involved. She does nearly everything required in the way of adult leadership except leading the building of the robot, and the competition strategy and coaching. She organizes the travel including sightseeing and "fun things" at the regionals. She organizes the (very effective) fund raising, helps recruit students, keeps people "in line" when necessary, signs us up for the competitions, etc. There are many others who help make our team what it is, but without Mrs. P. to keep us in line, we would not even be close to the successful team that we are.
