Just to keep everyone from getting too confused, These maps aren't right even by a long shot. The school isn't even on the same road. I zoomed out the map and put where Harmony actually is (apparently Harmony doesn't exist as a town yet to Mapquest or Yahoo, either). I also put a couple nearby teams on the map, and some that are close but just out of range. Talk about a town out in the middle of no where, There isn't even a restaurant or any companies there yet. I can see I have some work cut out for me, but it is a very worthwhile task. the school will offer construction and engineering, and eventually engineering1, 2, and 3 with construction as the perquisite. I can see a team become very good here someday, and am happy to be a part of it from the beginning, even if that means I don't have the advantages that a veteran team might have. We also hope to get the engineering teacher involved (along with the lovely room and tools he has
). I have high hopes for a great rookie year, and am happy I have so many wonderful friends on other team willing to help me how they can, a great advantage most rookie teams don't have. I'll try to get the new recruits on Chief Delphi to meet other people on other teams. What a wonderful resource this website is for exchange of information and meeting new people, something a no team should be without.
I would love to hear about other teams' experience from their first year, and would be grateful for any information anyone is willing to provide to what makes for an All-Star-like team. Just post, PM, IM, or e-mail me!
