Re: Midwest Regional WFFA

Congratulations to Raul. We might have met once in CT, I can't remember but either way 111 is a great old school team and I'm sure this award is WELL deserved. WFA and then they go and win the Mid-West regional which I was also really glad to see. The number of teams who have been around since 199x seems to grow smaller each year, and those who remain get nothing but respect from me.

Congrats once again.

-Justin

Re: Midwest Regional WFFA

Aah man; thank you all for the kind words.

The FIRST community is full of so many awesome people. There are many more who deserve this award and have not yet been recognized as such. And the list of amazing people keeps growing. Thanks again.

Raul

Re: Midwest Regional WFFA

Congratulations Raul - Ever since our team's beginnings, you've been an inspiration and modern day hero to us (And we are just one of many!) You've deserved this for a long time!

Re: Midwest Regional WFFA

Raul has had a profound impact on me over the years. This award is long overdue. It was a pleasure to be there to shake his hand.

Finally.

Congratulations Raul!

Re: Midwest Regional WFFA

Congratulations Raul! It has been great to be work with you for the past three years. Even though I never officially was on the mechanical subteam, it was great to work with you in the model shop and later in the pits. You have taught me a lot about robotics, engineering, and how to work under pressure. I will really miss working with you and the rest of WildStang's great mentors. Best of luck at BMR and the Championship!

Re: Midwest Regional WFFA

Congratulations, Raul.

One of the reasons that I like to travel to Indiana for the IRI off season event is because I've had a chance to watch 111 in action in a smaller venue than the Championship. By doing that, I've had the opportunity to see the mentors working side-by-side with the students on the team, bringing out the best in the everyone involved and in the competition. You are one of the engineers whose commitment I have admired for many years and you are one of the reasons that I believe in the FRC program as much as I do. Thank you for everything you do in helping set the standard for the rest of us.

All the best,
Jane
