2009 Thank Your Mentor Day - Jan 22

Since I just posted this:

I figure it's a good time for the yearly reminder.

Thursday, January 22, 2009 is national “Thank Your Mentor Day.”

This is a wonderful opportunity for teams to give their mentors special thanks and to publicize the work their mentors do.
Remember your technical mentors such as the engineers and machinists, and your non-engineering mentors, such as your teachers, parents, college students and other adults who help your team. Tell your community how important your mentors are to your team.

There are over 53,000 mentors involved in FIRST this year.
We have a lot to be thankful for.

Some ideas:
• contact your local newspaper for a story about your mentors and your team
• contact your local TV station for a story about your mentors and your team
• PA announcements at your school.
• post your thanks on www.whomentoredyou.org
• have an open house
• write a thank you note
