Just be polite and say hi, ask if ya can take a picture and we will let ya into the pit and let ya take as many as you like. By no means am I trying to be secretive. I wanna meet ya and talk to ya. Thats what FIRST is all about.

So what I'm saying is, feel free to get a photo and ask questions. Don't just snap a photo and run!

Also as a note, most scouts are social and that is GREAT!

And what FIRST is about!

But that's what a few people were justifying. Either they don't want to bother you (which you said is fine with you/your team), or they may have filled out info already but forgot to take a photo or you weren't there. I understand what you're saying, just that the wording makes it appear otherwise.

You want people to take photos, but you want to talk to them a little bit.
