Erin here from the Public Relations end of things (it isn't all engineering, folks)...

*Mike Martus of 47
*Kyle Hughes of 27 (seriously, how did any of you forget her)
*Anthony Lapp of 221 (Ok, how many teams did this kid pioneer?)
*Sue Krussell of 349(one of the most well-known here is Oakland County)
*Mike McIntyre of 1 (my personal hero)
*Ken Patton of 65
*Engineer Dave of Aces High, 176
*Nate Smith of 66 (One awesome kid, makes the attempt to keep FIRST alive year round, if only everyone was so dedicated outside of the internet)
*Greg Mills of 16
*Every adult from 71 (I have reasoning for this, I mean, more adults from that team went to the BOMB than kids, and boy, they are some seriously passionate people. They could convince you in 5 minutes that they have the best team in the nation. I came pretty close to being won-over.)
*Andy Baker (Not only is a big part of TechnoKats winning force, but also threw a big party for FIRSTers after the IRI, how cool is that?)

Not only are these and many more the adults who give up time to be with kids and help them build stronger futures, and not only are they the ones we have so belittlingly refered to as mere 'celebrities' of today's FIRST world. These people are the ones that each of us should strive to be like, those who are the role models, those who we should look up to and hopefully one day try to replace as we make our way in this world. To simply call them celebrities would be doing a great injustice not only them but to everyone.

I have a better question- who are the role models from your teams? Take a moment and thank those that have helped you on your quest to becoming a more fundamental part of society.

-Erin
