Re: At Competition

K-Dawg,

I would like to apologize for any problems you had in Pittsburgh. I myself have occasionally slipped at competition and the disappointment shown on one of my mentors face reminds me to get my words right. If you addressed it with the organizers I'm sure it will be handled or checked into. You may have noticed the event was handled much differently this year. Last year we had fewer teams and yet felt as though our pits were smaller and congestion was a problem, this year much better. Small example but one worth noting. We in Pittsburgh want to build a FIRST Class event and afford visiting taems the opportunity to see what is good about Pittsburgh. Hopefully you will continue to come and allow us to fix the problems. As a teacher I share your concern about being responsible for your team. Your concerns are noted.
