This is my 5th Championship in my 6 years on this team involved in FIRST. This year was a lot better for our team. We only have 16 students here and what we did was communicate with teams in the hotel make new friends. One morning we brought a team to the competition, the other night we brought a team to the mall and dinner with us on our bus and back to the hotel. We sat our team one to a seat so they would have to sit next to another team member and communicate to them. The kids had a great experience. We advisor's got ideas off their team they got stuff off of ours and exchanged numbers. They even invited us to come to Florida to the regional by them and they will take us around and show us around. Lending something to a team that is really needy to them is another great way. A team needed a track belt and we had one for them. If it wasn't for us they wouldn't be here. Someone was throwing tracks away so they took them but they still needed hubs because they were the wrong size and we had the ones they needed. It's about interacting people and helping them. I am somewhat disappointed but this is my 6 the year on the team, so therefor things in my opinion are pointless.
