Minne Mini-Regional 2016

[Chief Hedgehog]

Thanks to all that made this possible - especially 2169; you guys put on one heck of a show today!

Thanks to the NDSU Bison Robotics team for allowing Big Lake to use the 2016 GreenHorns Ri3d robot, Rivvet. With out a doubt the Big Lake team walked out of the school today fired up with their new hardware and a great appreciation for how FRC is supposed to run! They were beaming from ear to ear and could not stop talking about how they will adopt/adapt a lot of the team strategies that they learned today.

A special thank you to all of the teams in attendance for helping out this young team. There were times I walked over to Big Lake's pit and there were 4-5 teams helping them out! The students were in doubt heading into the competition, but as they found more and more success, you could see their confidence build. I have never been more proud of MN FRC teams than I am today. All around, this was one of the greatest things I have seen at a FRC competition.

Thank you all again.
