Re: Lessons learned 2005: The positive

One lesson learned is that you don't have to win your division or finals to have a great time! Our robot was well built and a lot of fun to watch. It just did not perform as well in some matches as others. I feel we still succeeded in the competition as we can sure answer YES to all 3 of the questions below.

One of our team mentors, Jeremy Roberts, CD forum member and the chair of the Peachtree Regional planning committee, asked 3 questions of everyone at the end of The Peachtree Regional. He said if you can answer YES to any of these questions you have succeeded here today!

Did you fix something that broke on your robot?

Did you make a mistake and learn from it?

Did you build a robot that you are proud of?

The parents and instructors of team #1002 are proud of our team and their accomplishments!

Dave
