Re: 2010 Woodie Flowers Finalists

If nothing else, teams should consider framing the application for each nominee. My team gave me a copy, with my picture (taken just after the ceremony) included in the document. It is printed on tie dye paper and framed. It sits in my living room where everyone can see it. It is one of my dearest possessions. Several WFA's were there for my presentation, Bill Beatty, Andy Baker and Ken Patton as I remember. My students were cheering and crying as parts of the application were read. You couldn't ask for anything better.

Re: 2010 Woodie Flowers Finalists

Congrats to Bill Pease from team 176, Aces High, for winning the Woodie Flowers Award at the CT Regional. Bill, I was surprised when I heard your name called, but only because I had assumed, given all you do for your team and the fact that you are one of the first and most recognizable people I met in FIRST, that you must have won the award long ago! A long overdue recognition for a fine mentor!!

Northstar's winner is actually Jon Anderson, not John. I couldn't help but let the waterworks flow. He and I have been mentoring together for 8 years now and it was an honor to be a part of his presentation. Congrats Jon, and everyone else as well!!

Re: 2010 Woodie Flowers Finalists

At 10,000 Lakes, I thought Joe Passofaro was introduced as the Outstanding Volunteer Award Winner, and wondered if they had skipped Woodie Flowers. He is certainly very deserving of either one, it's just too bad that the presentation of the award wasn't more clear. Congrats Joe!

Joe received Woodie Flowers on Saturday just before eliminations. This way all the WFAA's from both sides of the street and Bill Beatty could be present for the announcement.
