Championships Thanks and Congrats (To teams in all divisions)

[ScoutingNerd175]

I spent lunch on Saturday running around and checking in with all the teams I knew from last year and previous competitions. So here are my multi-divisional thanks and congrats.

Firstly, of course, to the World Champions 296, 217, and 522. You had a great alliance and it was awesome to see you play on Einstein. Congrats especially to 296, the first Canadian team to win Championships. When I saw you at BAE, I knew you guys would do well, I just didn't know how well.

Congratulations also to the other Division Champions: 25, 968, and 195, 451, 503, and 1139, 177, 1126, and 201

I have already Congratulated Team 111, but congrats again to the Chairman's Award Winners and to teams 365, 503, and 842 the honorable mentions and to all the other award winners.

And some personal thanks and congrats to teams that I know:

Team 1629- We had an absolutely wonderful time hanging out with you. I am glad that we were able to get together to play Frisbee and sit together in the stands. I'm sorry that you guys didn't get picked for the finals, you certainly deserved it. I'm also glad that we were able to play one more match together. Our robots were really well suited to each other. Stephanie, I especially had a great time meeting you and hanging out. Hey, I found out I have a 1629 "I Love Robots" button from last year.

Team 1184- I am so glad that you guys made it to Championships. I'm sorry that you didn't get to play the finals, you had an amazing robot that would have been a great pick for any alliance. You are awesome and I hope you have many more successful seasons in your future.

To both teams- The fact that we did not fair so well at the Championships in no way diminishes our win at Chesapeake, we made a great team.

Team 176- Our sister team! Congratulations on your wonderful season. Congratulations on a being a regional finalist, regional champion, and national division finalist. I had a great time talking with you guys at the party and I'm sure that we will see you at off season competitions. (Also congratulations to teams 111 and 122 their partners)

Team 33- Congratulations to our former alliance partners on being Division Finalists. I was so happy for you when I saw you sit down near the Einstein field with your medals on. (Congrats also to their partners 233 and 1902) I had a great time cheering with you guys on Curie last year.

Team 108- Thank you so much for partnering with us in Curie again this year. I wish that we had made it further this year, but We enjoyed sitting with you anyways.

Team 234- Thanks to you also for having us as a part of your alliance, you had a wonderful robot. I wish we could have gotten to see you more. Also, congratulations on the Entrepreneurship Award.

Team 1519- Congratulations on being a Championship alliance captain at your first nationals in only your second year as a team. I know you guys work very hard to have a team every year. Congratulations also for the success of your Lego League teams. You are really an inspiration.

Congratulations to all the teams this year for a job well done, you have all accomplished so much! I hope to see you next year. (wherever it is that I end up)
