Just a reminder (okay, it's a shameless plug) that the Non-Engineering Mentor Organization (NEMO) is open to adult and college mentors of
all FIRST program teams. NEMO provides support to mentors in the areas of non-engineering topics such as mentor recruitment and retention, teambuilding, team organization, fundraising, travel, etc. NEMO publishes white papers on these topics, promotes discussion in our online forum, gives presentations at conferences and facilitates workshops at off-season events as we are able.
Our website has a Resources section of information for rookie and veteran teams and Calendar section which includes an extensive listing of FIRST-related off-season events, workshops and summer camps. NEMO is a virtual organization and therefore charges no dues to join. I'd like to see more mentors from FVC and FLL join us this year.
