UFH: Raul Olivera

[Rich Kressly]

One of the first things I learned in FIRST was the name Wildstang .
"I wonder what Wildstang will build this year."
"That's all well and good, but you'll never get past Wildstang."
"Did you see what Wildstang does in autonomous? Crazy..."
"Wanna submit for the Inventor Award? Better see what Wildstang did last year."

All of that talk might leave some people thinking that the 111 Robot IS Wildstang. Just looking at the photo of Raul embracing his drive team members thankfully shows us all that people (just like any FIRST team) ARE Wilstang and Raul Olivera happens to be one of the very special people that make Wildstang a reality every year.

I've never met you personally Raul, but I always read what you say here and what others say about you. Your fierce dedication to 111 and to the student team members coupled with your generosity and willingness to help the entire FIRST community creates the type of changed culture that FIRST strives for. Thank you!
