Inspirational photos

[dubious elise]

High quality photos are always better, but these were the best two I could find of this very moment - the drive teams (and then some!) of teams 45, 930, and 269 at the Midwest Regional 2004. It was such a tense moment, waiting for the scores to the 2nd finals match to show up, and everyone that had snuck into the drivers station area linked arms to wait for the scores to appear.

Just some photos from inspiring the whole community. Chuck used to voyage out into local parades.

This is actually quite a great thread. Here is one of my favorite pictures from my team. We had a robotics expo in the Winter Garden a big business center in downtown manhattan. The looks on these little kids faces as they watched our robots made it all worthwhile.

We had the local elementary school come down and look at the robots, and we let them drive some of our old ones. They were amazed. Best pic i could find, unfortunately, the kid looks confused.

This one turned out OK as well.
It was really neat to see the kid's faces when they were driving.

While it isnt about winning, or teaching, or learning, it is about having fun, which is why i'm posting this photo. Fun fact: The guy in the photo has the initials MC

Ahem,*cough cough*, Adam, I thought you said this wasn't going to hit the press.

Explanation: I was bored, saw some earmuffs and a turn table, and just had to bust out some mad beats.

Any way, if you want funny, I got a couple for ya.

When we got our parts in from the water jet shop, we realized just how "deadly" our pieces look, so we decided to go Soul Caliber on each other http://engineer.la.mvla.net/robotics...3131372e4a5047

That same day, some one noticed that I happened to "match" one of the girls on the team, so how could we not take a picture? http://engineer.la.mvla.net/robotics...3131362e4a5047

Fun times.

not sure is this is inspirational, but definitely hilarious. this is what happens when you get a Norwegian foreign exchange student(right) on the team with roushey while they are trying to figure out Triple Play.

Teamwork at its best

That's me and my brother and sister on the last day before ship last year. They finally got to come see the robot that day, and they were amazed. Seeing the looks on their faces when we were driving it around was awesome to say the least, and I think that's what convinced my sister to go to the summer tech camp run by our school system.

The link has a few pictures from our Regional (most include members holding our Chairman's Award trophy). In the last one David Luhan, one of our state's Congressman is in the background.

a pic from last year at nationals, not really inspirational, but the emotion flows.

This wasn't at a competition but I still think it looks good.
