Congratulations on your Excellence Award! Coupled with the announcement that Steve Rhodes and Foster Schucker were named VEX Mentors of the Year, it looks like the greater Philadelphia area is the place for VEX!
It was a great weekend for STEMRobotics. After hearing that Steve and Foster, KTOR's biggest supporter and sponsor, received the Mentor of the Year award, we were ecstatic and couldn't have asked for anything more. Then the biggest surprise came on Saturday night when we heard that we were finalists for the College Excellence Award.

I personally cannot remember every word that Paul read as he presented the award, but when we heard him say "K..." we all jumped and screamed louder than we ever have before. From our inception date on March 14, KTOR had only 5 weeks to be competition ready. We didn't think that we would have a shot at the award, but still continued to do all the volunteer work and mentoring we already do. It was a great honor to receive this award and for myself personally it was even more special knowing that the mentor who started me on my path, was there to watch it as well.

I have to personally thank Rich Kressly for his 10 years of hard work and dedication to a program that he believes in and loves. If it wasn't for him I wouldn't be the person that I am today. It was truly special to have him there to show him that "I get it". I hope to continue on the path that Kres has started me on as a tribute to his dedication. FIRST and VEX will never be the same without him.

Thank you to everyone who believed in us, Andrew, Pat, Joe, and I all are grateful for this tremendous honor and will continue to promote and help the program that we love.
