Another story of heartbreak turned into and outpouring of help
Just thought I would share this story as we approach the Alamo Regional. A rookie team out of Mexico, team 4603, suffered an unfortunate loss as the FedEx truck transporting their crate was hijacked before it crossed over the U.S. border, causing the team to loose everything. Thanks to the support of the Bronc Bots, team 3481, of Brandis High School here in San Antonio and numerous other donations from many teams in the region this rookie team will still be able to compete. Just another great example of how the effects of a terrible situation is turned around by the support and help of FIRST teams all around. Yet another story of Gracious Professionalism at its absolute best. This is true inspiration and yet another excellent reason of why I have been around FIRST for 11 years and counting now.
