I'll get the party started! And I'll make this first suggestion without asking permission first, because I can... read on to find out why!
Try to meet - Foster Schucker - "Foster" here on CD.
Foster will be a first time attendee at IRI, coming with Team 1640, Sab-BOT-age, and boy is he excited! Why should you want to meet Foster? He and his STEMRobotics partner, Steve, were selected as the
VEX Robotics Mentors of the Year! He has been working on using robotics as the focus for STEM programs in the greater Philadelphia. If you have any questions on what it takes to organize a community wide robotics program, he would be a great resource!
How will you find Foster? Hmmm, he may be with the team (1640) which is bringing a very small contingent out to compete (gold shirts with blue sleeves), or he may be found where the VEX robots are playing. He has a beard and will be wearing safety glasses!
He often wears a fishing vest, with the pockets filled with virtually anything!
And back to the beginning... why can I suggest Foster without asking permission? Because he is my brother, and it is essential in our brother -sister relationship that I find ways to possibly annoy him! I think it is very cool that he got involved in FIRST after hearing about my FIRST addiction and has gone on to make a great impact in his community! He is definitely someone worth meeting!
