Re: 2015 Chairman's Predictions

Right now, 68 Truck Town Thunder, 1540 Flaming Chickens, and 2283 Panteras have caught my eye as strong contenders.

+1 987. Of all the teams listed, their program is the one that most inspires me.

That can be said of most of the current Hall of Fame (or could at the time when they were inducted). I don't believe this is a coincidence.

1540 won RCA in Oklahoma 2012, in addition to being a regular in the PNW.

Re: 2015 Chairman's Predictions

1511 - Rolling Thunder.

Solid program. Solid.

Passion is a great attribute for any team/team member. Clear understanding, knowledge, applicable skill sets, and impact that are fueled by passion - is a winning program. And it has been for a long time.

1511.

Re: 2015 Chairman's Predictions

Not counting the number of district Chairman's awards teams have won, ~39% of 2015 Regional / State Championship Chairman's award winners won the award this year for the first time.

A lot of the teams that have won have amazing programs, I can't wait to see who we get to induct into the Hall of Fame. Good luck to all!

Re: 2015 Chairman's Predictions

At first glance, the teams that stick out to me are 503, 987, and 1311. I'll come back after I've gotten through all the submissions.

Re: 2015 Chairman's Predictions

Team 1540 has the strongest program in the PNW and I would love to see them be recognized for it.

Re: 2015 Chairman's Predictions

Other than 987, I would say 503 and 2283 are the other two top contenders.
I would add 3132 and 3478 as contenders, but, they might be too young of teams to be considered, but who knows. (quick side-note, anyone else not able to read 3478's submission? It seems they uploaded 2338's submission twice, once as 2338.pdf and again as 3478.pdf)

This is just based on the teams I've personally interacted with at events I've been to. There might be some others that have great programs that I just don't know enough about.

I agree. Their Chairman's program is well known among PNW teams and definitely recognized. I hope they win and represent us.

Re: 2015 Chairman's Predictions

I will add my vote for 1540 from the PNW. They have been the team we have always looked up to and have consistently shown great support for FIRST in Oregon. Quite a record.
