I was giving out some volunteer pins at the desk in the main lobby. I guess not enough veteran volunteers and mentors knew to come to the desk to receive theirs, and perhaps an announcement should be made in the pits and on the field to let them know. They definitely deserve the recognition.

This was my first year volunteering at Philly and I really got to see just how hard working every one is. I must extend special thanks and congratulations for their diligent work and a job well done to Carol K, Rich Kressley, and Maureen Weiss. These three among countless others are true FIRST heroes and a pleasure to work with. These people help make the Philly regional known as one of the most friendly and fun-filled FIRST competitions around. Way to go!

I've said it before, and I will say it again, the Philly regional is one I will never miss. So, see ya next year!
