Go to Post I got something totally different from my FIRST experience. to me the spirit of FIRST is all about sharing. during the 6 week build period, you share yourself with the other people on your team. at the competition, you share your creation with everyone who watches your 'bot play the game. - George1902 [more]

Why can't your fundraising team do that and Chairman's? Are they fundraising 24/7? Safiq, I know you do a lot already but why can't you do Chairman's? I'm sure you have a little bit of free time between now and next February. I'm kidding a little bit but it truly comes down to priorities. There a ton of reasons to submit for the Chairman's Award and the number one reason is that it reminds you and your entire team that what we are doing has a greater purpose. Culture change doesn't just come from building one robot every year it take a lot of work. Truly ask yourself and your teammates what type of team they want to be. I hope you would start listing some of the qualities that the Chairman's judges are looking for and if you are going to work towards becoming that team why not use the Chairman's Award as I nice benchmark for knowing you are on the right track.
