Re: Dream Team, the people

The thread is very timely. We had a running gag at the Chesapeake Regional that I was starting a new team and everyone had to reapply for their jobs. I told the kids and coaches I was only looking for the best in FIRST. Every time I saw someone good from another team I would ask them if they wanted to join my new team.

But the reality is that I already have two of the best mentors that ever worked for FIRST Dina Campagna and Jim Haine. These people are pure genius. For the past 7 years they have quietly gone about the task of making our team one of the best places for students to learn and grow.

They don't get recognized or post on Delphi and you won't find them on anyone's list of Who's Who in FIRST. But have no doubt that they are the architects of one of the most successful programs in FIRST. I am embarassed to say that I receive 99% of the credit for their 7 years of work.

So I guess I better stick with them.

Oh yeah and Kressly... If you ever decide to jump ship, I guess I might take you too.

But seriously, I think there is a Dina or Jim on many FIRST teams and all those famous mentors better call them right now and tell them how great they are!!!
