If I may, I would like to add a comment regarding this participation. It speaks very well of the passionate commitment of the teams to the continued standard of excellence that they help to create, sustain, and grow in this region. I was gobsmacked by the attendance of teams that showed up for setting up the event and was told that it was 'normal' and 'expected'. I was over the moon with the attendance of the students at their Roundtable discussion and later, at the adult participants and mentors who attended their own Roundtable.
Knowing that nearly everyone who is involved is passionate about this program, I debated about making this post but - I think you all know that I mean no harm and that Indiana rocks.
These Roundtables consisted of members from pre-rookie, newer, and veteran teams.
