Mastercam contest for students

[KathieK]

OK, one more explanation and then I'm going to ask that this thread be closed because it went awry. I think that an astute observation was made here, but the implication was incorrect.

I love CAD (had I not been discouraged in the early 70s from pursuing drafting as a career because I am a female I would no doubtedly be working in the field now) and love Mastercam and check their site often. I saw the contest, thought it might interest someone here on CD and posted it.

I learned a lot as a mentor on RAGE for 4 years; left the team in June to devote more time to NEMO and to the other FIRST committees that I am on. Like many of you, I retain strong ties to my "alma mater" team. That is why you see me mentioning them in my postings frequently.

I applaud the strong support that CNC Software and CEO Mr. Summers have given to FIRST. Mr. Summers (a fellow alum of Rockville High School) has devoted hundreds of hours of his personal time tutoring students, as well as providing financial support.

NEMO is a virtual organization with a virtual headquarters and virtual bank account.

So, yes, in a roundabout way, Mastercam, CNC Software, RAGE and NEMO are all connected through me, but we will not benefit by this contest.

End of discussion.
