So the question you guys should be asking is, what schools/community groups would be interested in starting a team in that area? And, are whoever's supporting the JFLL teams interested in adding a level or three?
Well, that's where he was going, but I live 1500 miles away and wouldn't be able to offer support except for very long-distance. I figured he might want to mentor a year or two before trying to lead mentor a team cold... Even though -- or perhaps especially because -- that's what I did.

Where can I find this team locator?
