Also congratulations to John Wanninger from Team 1732 Hilltopper Robotics who won at the Wisconsin Regional. John (and his wife Sue) have worked hard to build that program, and truly deserve the award!

Dear Jeremy, you are my hero. Thanks for all the help you have given us (1002 and 2415) in the past 5 years. You have been a mentor for me since I was a freshman in high school and are a big reason I am a mentor in college now. Thanks and congrats.

Congratulations to Bruce Newendorp from Team 525. For those of you who haven't met Bruce yet, he is the quiet guy that has been in their pit for many years. He is one of the midwest's great mentors who work to give the students on their team the best experience they can. If you are in Atlanta, stop by 525's pit and meet another great WFA award winner.

Big Congrats to my best friend and partner in crime building robots for 5 years at Michigan Tech, Anthony Lapp... he's been a die hard FIRSTer for almost a decade and a half and I'm very glad to see him win this award. 27 - Team Rush has always been full of great mentors and he's just added to the list.

Truly deserved!

Congrats Jeremy and everyone else. I do not know the others but I do know that Jeremy has been a part of FIRST for a long time and is truly deserving of this honor. Congratulations buddy!

Congrats to Lonnie Weissman (think I got the spelling right, doing it from memory) From team 668!!!!!

Congratulations to Marty Rothwell for winning in Buckeye. 612 is lucky to have you!

Jeremy - congrats .. I missed this thread last week. I saw the awards page when you won and have been smiling ever since!

Ian Mackenzie won today in Waterloo. I can't think of a more deserving mentor. Over the past few years I've had the chance to work directly with some awesome people. Ian is perhaps the most incredible combination of intelligence, humility, and work ethic I've ever met. Congrats!

It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Congratulations, Jason! (He's also one of the tallest Woodie Flowers winners.)

If you don't recognize his name, he posts on CD as "dtengineering".

Congratulations Jason, Lonnie and Marty. I agree with Rich, Ian is also a very deserving mentor. Congratulations to you all. We have some stellar Woodie Award mentors this year.
