Re: 2008 Arizona Regional

So the regional has long been over, but I have something that cannot go unsaid.
I would like to thank all teams for a great competition.
125 came in to the competition in a pinch and in need with a late robot and a lack of tools. Any team there that we asked for anything was very gracious in helping us out. I would like however to point out 3 teams that went above and beyond our call for help. Teams 498 698 and 842. Team 498 and 698 had boxes of spare parts and various essential robot items ready for us when we arrived... that is impressive and I cannot express how much 125 appreciated this. Team 842 being right across the aisle in the pits from us took us under their wing for the entire competition. From lunch everyday, to any tool in their pits, to help programing a compressor, these guys did not stop giving. Because of the efforts of these teams 125 was able to get on its feet after a late start and have the robot tuned and working for the finals. 842, you guys really are a class act and completely deserve the chairman's award.
Now, with one competition under our belt we will be better prepared and fully functional for Boston in a couple weeks.
Again, thank you to all teams at Arizona for a great competition and one of the best displays of the ideals of FIRST that I have seen in my time in the program.
