229 would like to thank...

[Adrienne E.]

As many of you know, Team 229 did not find out until a couple weeks before the championship that we had qualified to go. And we would not have been able to pull off the trip without some amazing people helping us out. We would have not done as well there without help from even more people.

Kim and 1511- Your unwavering support all season has lifted our spirits on many occasions. Without your help we would have never been able to afford the trip. We will never be able to thank you enough.

Rob and 121- It’s been a pleasure to get to know you this season. We appreciated your help in bringing down all of our stuff so we didn’t have to ship it. I know I’ve thanked you about a million times but I want to make sure you really know how much it meant to us. And I promise to make sure you never have to see our cart again after we pick it up

217- We had an awesome time collaborating with you with season. The bots were amazing. I think with 2 regional finalists, 1 regional win, 1 Motorola Quality Award, and 1 divisional win, this goes down as the most successful collaboration in FIRST history (so far)

1126- Our friendly rivalry this season was great. And you finally beat us in our last match up of the season Everyone I’ve met from your team has been great, and I can’t wait to turn a couple of them into 229ers next year!

234- You have always been the most helpful pit partners! Because we couldn’t bring that much stuff down with us you were always willing to give us anything we needed. I guess John forgot to press that self destruct button on your transmissions for the finals. You guys almost had us in the quarters

118 and 312- We’re glad you guys didn’t give up on us during the semis. Our amazing Pit Crew pulled off a miracle to get the ‘bot back on the field for the last semi final match, and I was glad we got to finish with you guys even though the outcome was a loss.

Thanks to everyone for a wonderful competition! I hope to see you again next year
