He was the head scorekeeper at the STL FRC Regional, and he does a lot for the FTC and FLL. He also teaches off season classses in programming.

Congratulations on your win. Your robot was amazing!! It was really fun to watch when it wasn't dumping balls into our alliance trailers.

That is my wonderful husband, John, standing next to Mr. Beatty and handing the award to Tim. At least they are all in the picture I have a few more I will send to you. Congratulations.

Great essay, very creative. Thanks for posting it.
