On August 15th we held our annual Awards Dinner. Over pizza we presented medals to team members and discussed the triumphs of the season.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsors, without whom we couldn't have competed this year:

  • The M. J. Murdock Charitable Trust
  • The McGuire Bearing Company
  • Boeing
  • The Order of Knights of Pythias
  • Platt Electric
  • Intel
  • Hankin's TrueValue Hardware

We'd like to extend a special thanks to Deb Mumm-Hill, who helped us secure the last-minute funding to participate.

This season has been a fantastic one for our team. We created one of the best robots in our history, we continued our upward trend in the regional rankings, and we gained so many new experiences. There were definitely challenges - but challenges are part of building robots, and we overcame them - and we like to think we overcame them with style. It's been a great year.

We look forward to the 2010 competition season.

J. B. Crawford, Team Captain
