Congrats… They deserve it.
Team 236, I am so happy to see that you are this years Chairman’s Award winner. This was very well-deserved, and a long time coming. I’ve only seen a small portion of the amazing things you’ve done in my short time in FIRST, but even the small amount that I know about blows me away. Congratulations from the bottom of my heart!

Hey good job for finally getting it (:
You would think that all the chairman’s awards in Connecticut would have been worth about 3 National ones, but unfortunately there is that little rule that prevents that from happening…
oh well.
Congrats!
Welcome to the FIRST Hall of Fame, Ticks!
I had a chance to briefly congratuate some of your team members at the FIRST Wrap Party. Your team has done some amazing things over the past years. Your Chairman’s Award recognition is well deserved.
Nice Chairman’s video also!
Congratulations to Team 236 on the Chairmans and Hall of Fame.
Great work in so many areas.
Congratulations Team 236! A well deserved victory beyond any doubt. Blue Cheese will hope to see you again in Atlanta again next year!
Congrats Techno Ticks! Team 236! Welcome to the Hall of Fame!
Congrats to the Ticks. We were pulling for you and when we caught the clues in the speech we couldn’t hold back our excitement.
Congrats 236! It has been amazing watching you win Chairman’s year after year up here in New England. This award was long overdue and is truly deserved. I’m so glad that you were finally recognized!
To Jon Mittleman and his team.
After 5 years of supporting Israel and spreading FIRST in the area, along with all you’ve done in the states, you guys SIRIOUSLY should have recieved this award way before this year, but I’m still glad that you guys finally won the honor you soo much deserved. You’ve done beyond what most veteran FRC teams do to spread the word of FIRST and that seems you’ve gone even further than FIRST’s original vision.
Jon, you deserve most of the credit for consistenly coming to Israel to support the Israeli regional, espeacly with the judging which is very important in order for the really good and dedicated teams to receive their rightful award and to bring quality teams to represent Israel in Atlanta.
**CONGRATULATIONS JON AND HIS TECHNO TICKS!!! **

I’d like to go double on all that has been said. Super Congratulations to the Techno Ticks!!!
Congradulations! You guys did a fantastic job. You really deserved it this year… job well done. 
Congratulations…
I believe it was prophetic at our team meeting on Friday night when I asked my team to make sure and visit your pit. Team members had asked me what teams that we might try and emulate. My first thought was to send them to you…the efforts you have made for FIRST are incredible and your record in the Connecticut regional is amazing.
Best of luck… you are truly a premier FIRST team
Thank YOU, fellow FIRSTers! The TechnoTicks are honored to take their place in the Hall of Fame. We have been inspired by all the teams that have come before us. We want to thank all the Connecticut teams for their support of FLL in Connecticut and for the support of Dominion, our sponsor, as well as the teams of Southeastern Connecticut, Colchester (1699), Ledyard (1740), Guilford (2067) and Groton (2168) that help with the Bash at the Beach.
Nir, I also want to thank you for your kind words. Being Judge Advisor in Israel has been the highlight of my life; I have seen with my own eyes how the spirit of FIRST has inspired kids throughout the country to reach into themselves and achieve ever higher goals, whether they are Ethiopian Jews or Israeli Arab women or ordinary (is there such a word?) Israelis.
The TechnoTick’s aim is to inspire all FIRST teams to ‘do’ the Chairman’s Award…I have learned first-hand it is it’s own reward.
On behalf of Team 341, Miss Daisy, I just wanted to say how proud we are of the Techno-Ticks.
We have been following your team since 2003 when we won Galileo together. We also really enjoyed working with Jon last year to help the Israeli team compete in Atlanta. It was an experience our kids still talk about, to this day. We have attended Bash at the Beach twice and were always impressed with the quality of the event. And finally we have stood together many times outside the Chairman’s interview room joking about how many more times we would have to meet there. Well… your day has finally arrived.
You are a truly deserving team and should enjoy every moment of your recognition.
Best wishes from our entire coaching staff and team.
Al Ostrow
Team 341
I thought this happened years ago :rolleyes:
Amazing work in Israel over the years and congratulations on finally entering the Hall of Fame. It is long overdue.
