It's true. I have a shiny gold medal hanging around my neck to prove it!
I couldn't have done it without my lovely and talented robot, Daphne. She's a
winner, too! She is, in fact, a *prize winning* robot, which makes me a
prize-winning robot designer. ;) Thanks, Daphne!
I'd also like to take a moment to thank both Eric Sumner and David P Anderson
for coordinating two excellent robotic events, which drew competitors from all
over the country. Something that might have escaped casual notice is that both
of the contests (the indoor contest by Eric and the outdoor contest by David)
were both *completely new* and had never been done before. You would not have
been able to tell; things went so smoothly and professionally. Having attempted
to coordinate robot contests myself in the past, I appreciate how impressive
this accomplishment really is, and again express my gratitude to these exemplary
members for their hard work and willingness to serve. Thanks, guys!
A tip of the hat also to our *very generous* sponsors who donated thousands of
dollars worth of prizes to our event. My understanding is that all the prizes
were awarded due to the excellent turnout and quality of the participants. Be
sure to let them know that we appreciate their sponsorship of our club.
Of course I'm leaving out a lot and I hope to see some other people's feedback
about the contest here on the list.
Thanks,
Dale Wheat
