Step 1. Understand the game and how to win the match and the event. |

As a team sponsor, we are more concerned with the behavior, attitude and commitment to FIRST ideals than specific performance in the competition. Some of our teams perform well, some struggle, some are in the middle. We support them all in every way we can. |

I believe in my students, I encourage them to fail in their endeavors to find the best formula. There is valuation in failure. |

We are different, but in our differences we help the world continue to grow, change, become inspired. Different is NOT bad. Be true to your self, be weird, be dorky, be crazy, be a geek. :) |

Students design and build it, the engineers/mentors are there to guide us when we stray off the path. A great way to learn, a great way to mentor, a great way to grow. |

The best we can all do for our kids as parents, mentors and world citizens, is to model [Gracious Professionalism] always: not to win an award, but because it is the right thing to do. |

We found our bandsaw on Craigslist for $40. We keep looking for laser cutters and waterjets in that price range, but so far no luck. |

Didn't know the details about the battery. In the past it was just a black (grey) box with two terminals...use...recharge...use..recharge. |

We use a student coach/team captain for Team 342. This allows us mentors to sit in the pit area during competition and just relax. Watching the competition really gets our stomachs tied in knots. |

And the rest of the team helped them, encouraged them, and made a big deal about how awesome it was that we were competing for the Chairman's Award. |

If I was a balding man, and Dean Kamen signed MY head, I'd immediately make my way to the nearest tattoo parlor and have them make it a permanent fixture. I wouldn't have washed it off! Just saying. |

We have tried doing the cha-cha slide on the airplane, but that went away very quickly - it seems that the pilots don't like all the movement in the plane. |

By "resources" do you mean money (sponsor or school), school support or permission, build facilities, or mentors? All of these require different solutions. |

You have not only joined a robotic competition, you will discover that you are becoming a member of a very large and wonderful family. The more years that you participate, the larger your FIRST family will become. |

The biggest thing is you don't have to make your robot like another teams. Come up with something unique and go from there. RAISE THE BAR.....

Doughnuts would probably be a pretty good alternative to churros. However, that could be open to debate. |
