I can confirm this. She did go on the field to see if there was a robot issue or a field issue, but she did not touch the robot. The joke all weekend was that by simply looking at the robot the right way, it would start working .

While I have volunteered a many off-season and non-FRC events, this was the first time I have ever volunteered at a regional. All I can say is that it was one of the best experiences I have ever had in FIRST. The event was very well run, and all the crew was absolutely top notch. If the event falls in the same weekend next year, I will certainly be returning.

It was also quite exciting to be able to watch so many great teams compete. It was also excellent to see 10 WFA Finalists/winners at Fridays award ceremony.

Congratulations to all the teams. It is really great to see that we did not need to use the bogie wheels on any trailers on Friday or Saturday. I hope everyone had a great time and that you all come back next year!
