I would have never thought that with all the vex users out there it would be that hard to sell this off.
Through my connections with the RECF, I know a DC-area Maryland High School that wants compete in the VRC program but doesn't have the start-up dollars.

Your equipment plus a kit from one other donor that volunteered just yesterday would be a wonderful gift that would inspire many students for many years.

There is a well-established FRC team standing by ready to mentor this new group.

PM me if you want details - I'll have my fingers crossed!
