Re: Retired ME interested in mentoring

I think the "small machine shop" part and the CAD part will really get a team's attention more than the coffee.

If I might make a suggestion, the established team probably doesn't need the help as much as a new(er) team that is still trying to find itself. Now, team 3045 (Junipero Serra High School) might have that problem less than some, as they have a Rookie Inspiration Award to their credit already.

Also, you may be able to contact some of the members/mentors for a team through Chief Delphi. Go to the member list (up in that orange bar) and hit the "search members" button, then do an advanced search for the team number, which will be either 0840 or 3045 in this case. Now the trick is finding someone who is still on the team and likely to respond--last activity date from their profile is usually a good indicator.
