New Captain
Posted by John-Nicholas Furst
Hello everyone, This is John-Nicholas.In case you were unable to attend last Tuesday's meeting I have been selected as the new Team Captain. I would like to firstly thank Matt again. He has served as the outgoing team leader and has been an amazing mentor, supporter, and beastly a friend of mine. He did a great job this last year and I want to express my most sincere thanks for his work and wish him the best in all of his future endeavors, which hopefully will include coming back as a mentor.This leads me to my next group to thank. I would like to thank all of the team mentors. The mentors mean so much to us, without their support our team would never have even been able to dream about finishing anything that looks like a robot. Thank you so much mentors! I hope I will have the pleasure to work with all of you again next year. This also allows me the opportunity to add my wish for more mentors. I love mentors and we can use some more. I would like to thank Mr. Pederson for signing on with us and helping work with Mr. Brown to setup and organize the electrical meetings. However we can also use more mentors, especially mechanical mentors, if you are interesting in helping our team or know someone who is please contact me.
Next year will promise to be another fun pact build season that is complemented by competition packed regionals. I can not wait to lead the team and revel in our success. Before we get to the build season though, we have an action packed off-season. The off-season is currently planned with ideas for teaching, prototyping, and events. I will add more details about these as we get them compleatly hashed out. In the mean time I would like to thank everyone for making this year so much fun and encourage everyone to be prepared for much more really fun learning through robotics.
