Shannon,
How right you are. I remember when we lost our final match my senior year in high school. I could only think that it was all over, and I was upset because I wanted more than anything else to win a championship. I found, however, that it is worth alot more than just winning. My life was shaped around this program, I was able to get a job because of the experience I gained with CADD while working on the animation. Before FIRST I wanted to be a doctor, I know now that I really wanted to be an engineer all these years. And thanx to the people at NYPRO who cared so much about my future and learning, I was able to get into college when I thought I might not be. I am very very happy to have been part of this competition all my life. But it doesn't have to end when you leave high school, I am living proof. As a member of the Daniel Webster College and Alvirne High School team I was able to pass on everything I had learned about engineering and FIRST over the years. Even better, I learned more this year than I ever did before. This is because FIRST was part of our engineering project, and we the college students had to work with the high school students in designing and building the robot. So you can see that your experiences with FIRST do not end with high school. They will carry with you as long as you will let them.
Good Luck in the Future
Andy Grady, DWC/Alvirne HS
