Thanks to:
Thanks for all the members of FIRST who worked so hard to make this scrimmage a success.
Special thanks to Team 571, Team Paragon, for volunteering to clean up after the event. Their assistance after two VERY long days of preparation for the event was appreciated.
On behalf of Shelton High, thanks to those who contributed to their food drive collection. We collected many boxes of food to help restock their shelves. It was wonderful to see the FIRST community support the efforts of one of our teams.
Additional thanks to:
For the past 5+ years, Jx2 Productions, LLC Entertainment & Event Services (former members of Rosie Robotics Team 839) have graciously provided music and sound for the scrimmage. The event wouldn't be the same without them.
Thanks to Team 230 from Shelton, CT, the scrimmage was viewed around the world via the web. Thanks to the Gaelhawks for again providing this service to the FIRST community.
Several items were left behind:
- Rust colored waffle weave long sleeved shirt (size XL)
