Mentor Recognition

We welcome all teams to participate in our FIRST Mentor Recognition program. Each team will be provided with a 20(w) x 30(h) inch poster to display a document presented in good taste, that will truly honor the mentor(s) and all they have done for their team. Posters can include pictures, stories, etc. Posters can be mounted on Thursday morning, and will be available for all to view in the voyer of the SJSU event center.  In addition, all mentors will be called to the field on Saturday for a special recognition by the Silicon Valley Planning Committee and FIRST. Please join us in the start of a larger recognition of Mentors and
