The calm before the storm / Tips for 2005 and beyond.

Well said Elgin, I think that I'll be showing that to my kids. While I, nor most of my other mentors, are actually rookies, none of my kids have ever even heard of the program and I think that it would help them out a bit to hear that. I may wait until after kickoff though, so they sort of get it a bit more... Thanks again Elgin!

Also, for all teams, check the White Papers section here on CD - LOTS of useful information for established and rookie teams from your fellow FIRSTers.

And, if you are a mentor dealing with the non-technical aspects of FIRST such as fundraising, travel, teambuilding, public relations, etc., join NEMO (Non-Engineering Mentor Organization) by private messaging me or RoboMom. (Note, a link to NEMO information is now on the FIRST homepage for anyone who is not a member of Chief Delphi yet).
