I want to thank every single participent in that project. Dave's comment was just amazing (i read that over and over a few times), Andy baker, JVN, DJ, and Rich's comments made me think how FIRST is changing other's lives. That testimonials has been put together very nicely and great comments form mentors in FIRST. A rookie who read this will be inspired right away. Thanks for taking your valuable time out of your schedule and put this together...

FYI everyone.
As many have requested, the testimonials have been updated (thanks for uploading, Brandon) with the new FIRST Logo and a few other updates/corrections were necessary as well. Enjoy and PLEASE continue to distribute this package and compile "local" packages for your region. All feedback that I have received tells me this does make a difference. I'm currently working on more local versions for our two PA Regional areas.
(Note: I left the old logo on Steve Chism's letter because that was the letterhead he used at the time of submitting. This is not a mistake
)
