I’d just like to say thanks as well for all those who made River Rage such a fun time… although we didn’t bring our robot, 3 of us from Team 126 came up and had a great time…

'specially thanks to Team 42 for letting us be their strategy team so we could get involved in the competition. Congrats to DWC and WPI for winning and some great competition by TJ and Assabet in the finals… everyone there did awesome- thanks for letting us be a part of it!

River Rage was a tremendous event. I can’t thank them enough for putting it on. The twelve teams that were there did a tremendous job. It was a great end to a wonderful season. And it only gets better form here, I can’t wait for next year’s game and another 6 weeks of building fun. It’s gonna be a blast. Thank you to everyone for making this year so great.

Hello all,
I just wanted to thank everyone who made river rage such a great experience for all of us. Also i would like to give a few special thank’s out to some of the people who helped us.

  1. Thanks to my good friends from team 126, colleen, kate, and rachel. We couldn’t have done it without you.
  2. Thanks to team 157 for being great partners in our award winning round, and helping us out by letting us borrow an assortment of tools when we needed them.
  3. Thanks to those people who were so helpful when our machine was on the fritz, especially Tom Wible from team 131, who even when we were up against them in the semi’s, helped us fix our robot so we could have a fair match.
  4. Thanks to the refs who did their best to make the correct calls and were very patient when we were attempting to fix our robot on so many occasions.
  5. And Finally a BIG thanks to team 190, WPI and Mass Academy, for choosing us as thier partner and sticking by us even when our machine was falling apart. You guys truely were great champions and partners, and we were proud to have won the competition with you.
    Now that the year is finally over I cant help but think about the comming year with great enthusiasm. I look foward to seeing you all again next year.

Have Fun,
Andy Grady, Team 42 DWC/Alvirne HS
