Re: Gracious Professionalism

At a regional event last year we damaged a critical component of our robot. I local team drove back to their school and found what we needed to go on. No questions asked, didn't ask for payment, didn't ask for it to be returned. This item probably had a street value of over $100.

At nationals last year our team made a rookie mistake and we were not ready with charged batteries for the quarter finals. We could have had 10 extra batteries when it was all said and done with the outpouring of support from teams around us.

A mentor from a local team also happens to be a robot inspector for our local regional. Last year (and again this year) he gave up a valuable work day to leave his team and come over to our school to give us courtesy inspection. This was very important because we were a rookie team and we would not have passed inspection for several reasons. He saved us a lot of frustration.

The list goes on but you get the idea. There is always someone there to extend a helping hand regardless if they are a stranger, competition foe, neighbor or live 1,000 miles away.

Thanks FIRST community!
