The Post Standard put in a small square of text about us a few weeks ago about our victory...and than this weekend I find a pic of Pink Team half the size of the paper from the boston regional. I just find it funny we never get the spotlight in our own paper...

There are a lot of teams in our area so it is tough for one team to be featured. However, Newsday did an article on the Long Island Regional and there was a picture of our team.

Re: Team News Paper Articles
 
Our team is in our local papers often (after every regional and kickoff, during build season) because we send pics and press releases whenever something is going on. They've also covered some of our fundraisers and school assemblies and career fairs we host, as do the 3 local TV stations.

Last month we were featured on our local CBS affiliate's morning TV show. We had 3 3-minute live segments. The reporter and videographer came to our school (at 5:15 a.m.) and we were live at 5:45, 6:15, and 6:45. Great publicity and we were sure to let everyone in our community know it would be on! To get this we just asked to be featured as the station reports live from somewhere everyday.

I'm proud to say that our team members did ALL of the talking during these live segments and did a fabulous job (the advisors just stood in the background and behind the camera).

We've gotten a fair amount of publicity for our rookie year. I know that we were in Main Line Times as pre-rookies for modifying one of Miss Daisy's robots for Ramp Riot 05. We had a feature article in Main Line Life about us during build season, and Main Line Life is coming to interview us again tomorrow about winning the Highest Seeded Rookie and Rookie All Star Award at the Philly Regional. Also, KYW radio news interviewed our driver at the Philly Regional, so we also have some publicity from that. I think there is another article or two, but I don't remember them...

We finally had a dedicated press release parent to manage it this year, so we had almost weekly coverage in the (weekly) town newspaper as well as biweekly in the county paper and an article or two in the state paper. Last year, we had a few articles and a short piece on the state cable news network.

Luckly, at my school, three team members are on the school newspaper. So the news is always right and when something great happens we are always in there. Our win at Chesapeake is going to be the front page story in this month's issue. :)

The only thing that's missing is our school newspaper. We're also working something about the Philadelphia Regional to put on our school's tv channel.
