Re: So who do you think is the favorite to win this years Chairman's award?

Lots of great teams. Here are a few of my favorites though:

25 - Probably one of the most influential teams in the northeast. They've helped spread the message of FIRST and started REALLY quality teams since their inception. Great mentors and great students. They really embody the spirit of FIRST. Not to mention they host a terrific off-season event.

365 - It's MOE! They're loud and they're proud! I love MOE and the energy they always bring to the competitions. They're really active with FLL and they also host the wonderful Duel on the Delaware event. Again, this team is really a role model FIRST team.

1114 - Would FIRST in Canada really be where it is today without this team? I love their innovative approaches to setting up truly quality FIRST programs in Canada. The hardwork they put into spreading FIRST is so readily apparent.

383 - I've been down to Brazil and I've seen how awesome this team is. FIRST is so big in their in school! They have their own 'robot house'!!! Anyway, they were key in expanding FIRST support down in Brazil. Every year they overcome countless obstacles that most US teams will never have to face. And what's even more amazing, they do it with a smile! Amazing team!

Other favorites: 71, 111 - Old-time favorite teams of mine. When I think FIRST, these teams always come to mind. And for good reason!

Just my 2cents. Good luck to all the teams!!
