Last year we were surprised to win the Peachtree regional, and be able to go to Atlanta for the Championships. However, we did not have the money to get hotel rooms, or get a bus. Another team, En Tech 281, who was unable to go to Atlanta gave us the money they had saved for their hotel room, and our "rival" school let us ride with them on their bus. They didn't ask for any payment of gas, and over those four days, we became pretty good friends. back at school, the other students were appalled. the "enemy" gave us a ride, and then we hung out with them?

I'm having a hard time explaining GP to our freshmen and rookies, and I'm finding that our "old" members often forget is as well. I'm wondering how most teams use GP? Is it just something you do for the judges, only something you do at competition, or is it in the shop, and our lives in general?
