On 237, our "sustenance coordinator" (person who sets up the food schedule for the 6 wks) Stacy & her father have a lot of relatives on other teams. Stacy's grandfather is on team 38 (Nonnebots), and the Nonnebots were the ones who introduced Watertown to FIRST.

Team bonding is a good thing. I still remember the "lock in" of 2000, in which Sie-H20-Bots (237) and Nonnebots (38) got together in 38's space for a inter-team sleep over. We spent the night watching movies on a projector with a decent sound system, half of us nerds brought our computers and played lan games, and ate food, telling our FIRST horror stories. It was great fun, and i think all left with a close feeling of the meaning of FIRST and friendship. That year, Nonnebots and Sie-H20-Bots cheered for each other at the regionals as though they were one in the same team.

It was great fun, and I hope we can arrange something like that again sometime.
