Mentoring
Hey everyone. My name's Matt Thomson, I'm from team 1038, the rookies out of West Chester. I'm sitting here with a box of tools and old manuals and trying to figure out if I can drill this metal with this bit, or this PVC with this bit, and it's all getting a little confusing. That's why I was thinking, is there a place to meet another team that's not a rookie? Or maybe just get a few leaders from the rookie team to chat/chill with some people from a veteran team to kinda get the swing of things? If there's not, I propose that we set one up, like a Mentoring Program or something, to help out the rookie teams. I figure nobody'd be opposed, the atmosphere of FIRST is really cool, especially for a "competition," everyone likes to help everyone else. Maybe the big name teams could get set up with the rookies and so on and so forth, so that the leaders could get up to speed with what's going on. My AIM sn is on my info or whatever, and my email addy, so someone get in touch, and maybe even use this thread to meet other people. Just put out like an add, kinda like a personal, without the lovey dovey stuff (unless you're an all girls team...j/k) and then the vet teams can, if they have time, pick a rookie team and help out. Just talking with someone who knows what goes on sounds like it would help a lot. Thanks for listening!
