Team 40's gracious professionalism extended past the end of the competition. As many of you know, team 1071 is hosting a competition next weekend, so they took the field off of our hands. However, the truck they had doesn't have a tailgate, so team 40 graciously stuck around to help tear down the field and let them use the tailgate on their sponsor's (Intelitek) truck to load 1071's truck.
Thanks to NEMO for holding a class at our competition. I hope you had a turnout like you expected.
Thanks to Andy Baker and Mark Koors for assisting at our competition. They knew they were going to be around so they contacted Dave Kelso offering to help. It's always nice to have someone who knows as much as they do to answer questions. I think Andy had a great time being the ref during the Referee Human Player Match. I'll have a video of that soon.
I know I already posted this, but 121 was recognized for their gracious donation of $200 to pay for any team in need of it. We spoke to 2342 at Battlecry and they were able to attend. So, thanks, 121. They received an enthusiastic ovation from 2342 at the competition.
