More details on Chairman's Award

Competition Awards

I am still not completely clear on what the essay for the Chairman’s Award needs to be about. I can’t seem to find it anywhere.

Have you so far checked the Awards section? They devote a section to the CA essay. In general, it’s about how you show GP, spread the spirit of FIRST (and live it), etc. in your team and community. (Note: you may need to find the 2006 Manual and check the guidelines in there as well.)

[edit]By the way, I just noticed your team number. Are you going for the Rookie All-Star instead of Chairman’s?

Thanks man. I feel stupid now. Hopefully no one else will see my thread.
I think you can tell I am on a rookie team by more than my number. LOL.

And yes we are submitting to the Rookie All-Star Award.

Thanks again

Go ahead with the Chairman’s submission–it’ll help the All-Star. Plus you’ll have it for next year, when you become eligible.

Rookies rock. Don’t worry it. In a couple of years you will be helping other rookie teams find their way. Good luck with your submission.
