Re: Everyones Favorite part of Nationals
Many memories:
here's 4:
1. watching our team grow right before my eyes - the team that arrives on Wednesday is not the team that leaves on Saturday - it's very cool
2. introducing a rookie parent to the Championship experience - watching her experience MOE -
3. I could see teams 111 and 25 from where I sat in Galileo - the spirit and excitement could be felt across the arena
4. a senior from 922 would come find me several times during the 3 day event for hugs and farewells - Saturday she came 4 times - each time with tears - our teams have shared many competitions and she and I have shared the spirit of FIRST -
I feel mighty blessed.
