Re: What to do after this season ends?

Offseason competitions. Especially tune in to IRI. (IRI: Indiana Robotics Invitational, AKA The REAL Championship. Biggest and best field of any offseason.) I believe Tempest 'N Tampa is in your area.

Build a promo-bot.

Do demos with your competition robot.

Find more sponsors of all types.

Recruit.

But before you do any of that, sit down and evaluate the season. What went well? What went wrong? Good ideas, bad ideas--and be honest with yourself. How can you improve for next year?
