I am impressed with the number of Texas Teams

Last year, the Houston Regional had 46 teams. Now Houston has 50 teams and Dallas is approaching 50 as well. DOUBLE the Texas TROUBLE !
Rookies are going to need tremendous support in Texas. Especially a few of the new teams which are hundreds of miles from another veteran FIRST team.
Right now the txfirst.org website is putting up lots of Training information between Houston and Dallas to help teams along with local workshops ! Nov 8th we have a workshop with FRC#499 and the Beta Controller, please RSVP !

I'm curious to know which teams are supporting the new rookies. Does anyone have
success stories of Veteran connections with the 2009 Rookie teams ?
