Only Tech Center Students, and those on the team from last year, may join this year. Not only is this unfair to those that wish to join, but it hurts the team as well, since you can only attend the Tech Center for 2 years, this will rob the team of 2 yrs of experience. we are taking measures to try and change this ruling, and I hope that as fellow FIRST fanatics, you will come to our aid. I ask that all of you that think this is wrong, please email Mrs. Engel at (removed - Madison), and ask her to change her mind. (Please keep these E-mails nice, polite, and courteous, as she has been a great help to the team in other years)
I thank all of you in advance for your support, and promise to keep you posted on how this all turns out.

Ben, Hi, I'm Jenny Beatty, the FIRST Senior Mentor for Maryland. I am familiar with your team. Please email me at jbeatty@usfirst.org so we can have a discussion outside of this public forum. I can understand you are concerned, but having random emails sent to Ms. Engel probably is not the most effective way to address your concerns. It is also generally not cool to post someone's email in a public forum without their permission so it would be great if you could please delete it.
Let's talk!
