Re: Proudest Moment

Sitting across from a football coach and mentor of a team, who's telling me that he's seriously considering quitting football for his new FIRST team.

Watching him tell us how his kids, who he considered spoiled and overly competitive, once at the regional, jumped to the aid of a nearby team in aid.

The coach telling us that it already changed a few student's goals in life, even aiding those who were down on the wrong path.

The football coach telling us that he stood in front of his team with an empty budget, asking them that, if asked to go to nationals, who would be willing to work their butts off to pay to go. And getting every hand raised.

Having that coach look at my mentor and I, thanking us for helping start his team and aiding him throughout. Seeing the spirit of FIRST in his eyes.

But most of all, watching FIRST bestow them the honor of Rookie All Star.

There was no prouder moment for me, nor a better reminder of why I spend so much time a week trying to spread FIRST.
