Good thought, Josh.

I, personally, look forward to the day when we grumble and wonder if teams are being awarded the Chairman's Award because of their continual support of other FRC teams and establishing methods of stability and sustainability in their areas/regions.
There is ebb and flow to the years the teams compete in. 2009 has been big in many areas that are impacting and will continue to impact the 2010 FRC program and therefore, the teams that compete for the Chairman's.
If we try to pinpoint a specific area as to why CAs are awarded, we are narrowing our own perceptions and limiting our own possibilities. And all it is - is guessing, really. What we do know is that FLL has succeeded in making a huge impact and FRC has helped with that along the way.
