Re: Boeing Website - Featuring FIRST Robotics

Boeing sponsors so many teams... it was good to see them honored with the Founder's Award at the Championship.

Still, so many schools have yet to start a robotics team. We have our work cut out for us... there are a lot of Boeing employees that are able to mentor our students... we just need to match them up with the schools. Exposure like this on Boeing's own website is a step in the right direction.

My belated apologies to our Archimedes pit neighbors for when Mr. Muilenburg came by to take video and photos. It was quite the entourage and commotion! The kids get very excited when judges and (in this case) VIPs come around with questions... the kids come forth with their elevator pitches and hand out tchotchkes to everyone and prepare to answer questions...



@Mr V -- when we couldn't find our cache of 7.5A minibot fuses, your team came to our aid. Thank you! And congratulations on making quarterfinalists in such a tough division!

@Bob Steele -- we were only successful because of your help and guidance. And some planets had to align for us. But 1983 continues to pave the way: Lydia (Dean's List); alliance captain & quarterfinalists on Curie field; CMP Creativity Award sponsored by Xerox (when Woodie read the clues, we all knew...). You're raising the bar again for all PNW teams.

@Glenn -- what's left to be said about the Hawaiian Kids that hasn't already been stated in multiple threads on CD? Your team has changed Hawaii... and is changing the world. You're inspiring all of us.
