If many of the teams do not return for year #2, I question the value of providing rookie year only sponsorships--are we really growing FIRST if teams do not return. I would like to know last years return number so that we can compare them to next year's return numbers--this will allow us to know the real impact of the rookie grants. Also, please share your thoughts about rookie grants. We are EXTREMLY GRATEFUL for JC Penney's role it helping us get started. However, we are really struggling to find permanent sponsors.
