KaBao McCarver’s leadership and dedication is truly unmatched in the VEX Robotics Community. KaBao is most recognized as a referee for various signature events. She is both consistent yet kind to the students. There is no arrogance in her position. She does what she does because she cares about the kids. She is always looking for ways to improve and get better, and is always open to correction or new information. She is inspiring, as she is a constant encouragement to the members of the robotics community. She’s volunteered her time as a ref at many state events, signature events, and even the VEX Robotics World Championship.
In addition to reffing, she has started to host tournaments in areas that need local tournaments. Everything she does is well-organized, top-notch, and focused on the student experience. This past year the Speedway Signature event implemented her idea of a senior ceremony. Each graduating student was corded with blue and red graduation cords in honor of their involvement in VEX. KaBao organized the ceremony, created an amazing slide show with photos of the seniors, and made the event even more special for the students. Words are not adequate to describe how this amazing lady has brought the robotics community together from state to state. Truly, she is the definition of an Inspiration All-Star!
