If you have an issue with event and program costs, follow our lead. These things can be changed.
The key to sustainable growth in FRC depends on 2 things:
1. reducing the price of entry.

But sadly, everything is bigger in Texas, including our regionals.
If you want the district model of return in Texas, your team should do VEX.
