Re: Language at Championships

I spent most my time in the pits with my drivers and mechanical students and really didn't hear that much foul language. What did surprise me when I went to the stands was seeing some girls dressed in pants and string bikini tops. They had painted their bodies and one of them had many piercings in very odd places. I understand that these are high school kids but a lot of families were there with young children and were offended. I was even more amazed when one of these students was chosen by her team to accept their award during the closing ceremonies. FIRST is not "Girls Gone Wild" If my feelings offend anyone I am sorry, but I truly believe that this was out of place.
