Since I was a little kid I have always been a part of a team. There have been youth sports teams, various extra-curricular groups, our team at Redwood Valley Middle School and Redwood Falls and the surrounding communities. My teams have been of all sizes with various purposes. Regardless of the team, there has always been a consistent theme that “there is no “I” in team”. I cannot tell you who is credited with first saying the quote, but I can tell you I have heard it more than once in my life.
