Congrats UTC CT Regional Vol of the Year - Jessica Boucher!

Congratulations to one of the nicest young women in FIRST today - Jessica Boucher, 2007 Volunteer of the Year, UTC Connecticut Regional. Jessica puts so much effort and work into recruiting just the right people for our regional as our Volunteer Coordinator and makes everything run like clockwork during the event. Besides working on the UTC regional, Jess is a mentor for FRC 40, and also a Vol. Coordinator for the Championships in Atlanta,and a founding member of FRC 237. I thank her for always being there when I need to talk things through. She is one of FIRST’s gems. Congrats, Jess!

Great job Jess! The award is well deserved. Looking forward to seeing you again a couple of weeks.

Congratulations Jess!! :smiley:

Cogratulations Jessica!

WHOOOOO YEAH JESSS!!! I knew you could do it!

All right, Jess!
About time someone recognized your awesomeness!

congrats jess!! :smiley:

WHOOO HOOOO JESS!!! WAY TO GO!!!

From media tent volunteer back in the day, to graduating HS, going to school for a non-techincal career path while so dedicated to FIRST (::gasp:: non-techincal you say??? AS IF!! LOL :stuck_out_tongue: ) and then working for a company also so dedicated to all of the programs we love so very much… I, as well as many of your peers and current & former mentors salute you and this award proves it!!!

And this proves another thing.
You don’t need a degree in anything science or technology related to succeed in FIRST, just the passion for the progam, and the drive to improve upon it.

Congratulations Small Wonder*! :smiley:

*Jess knows what I mean by that and it’s a good thing.
Ask her for the story of her first semster in college and how she earned that nickname.
It’s a good one. LOL

Congratulations, Jess!

Congrats Jess, that’s totally awesome!!

Man, you guys are racking up the mentor-type awards this year…great job. I know I only got to work with you for a little bit, but one of the first things I noticed was how completely dedicated you were to FIRST, especially for a non-engineer, how cool!
