WOW! IRI was much more then I expected. I am so happy that I was able to be a part of it as a Referee. Working under the experienced head Ref Stu was great, as well as working with the entire ref crew.
The entire event was amazing, from the start to the 4 hour finale. From the mentor meet and great, to the matches, the demos, the dinner, talent show, and even the mentor match. All of it was great. I have been volunteering for 8 years now and it felt so go to be part of the mentor match, standing on the other side of the play station line made so much of a difference, even though I probably had the worst driving there.
Being from the east coast I really enjoyed meeting all of the teams that were there and a large number of the mentors and others involved with FIRST. I cannot wait to come back with my team next year.
If this was IRI I cannot wait to see Championships…

I have a picture of that score and others that I will post on my team’s site later on, after I get home from work.
