Wow, what a year for FIRST in Michigan. Personally I saw another awesome years demonstrating what FIRST is all about. Ann Arbor District, Detroit District, Troy District and Michigan Championships. Awesome events, awesome volunteers, awesome teams, great people young and young at heart. But the attached pic tops it.
Four hours after squeaking out a win at the MI Championships and proving yet again they are a serious contender for Einstein, here's 469 team members showing true dedication to FIRST during the field teardown, literally climbing into an overloaded dumpster to properly dispose of the practice field carpet.
Huge thanks to all the teams that helped with the field set up, reset and teardown this year. I met a ton of fantastic and fun people we couldn't have FIRST in Michigan without you.
Thanks,
Ben
