Re: Florida offseason event, Mission Mayhem
Well since I can't get the feed and have made myself snarfy today - I've been walking around thinking -
It does not surprise me a bit that this has turned into such an amazing can-do event. All of the founders' encouragements and long range thinking, the mentors' teachings and role modeling, the sheer tenacity and imagination of FIRST teams have come into play here. Adversity is one of the parts that comes in the kits. Accomplishment and success are in there as well. This weekend is an amazing success for all of the teams, volunteers, and supporters of robotics and of FIRST. And I know each person involved is having a total blast, hairy, but total.
Wishing I was there - wonder if Wendy has any voice left. I doubt it.
