Re: Overcoming challenges of having an FRC team in schools and overworked teachers

I talked to 1640, sab-BOT-tage and they as well have created their own llc
From what I remember, the school was increasingly less supportive of the program. Eventually, they moved into a warehouse/machine shop that a sponsor generously allowed them to use. As an organization, in addition to FRC costs, they also have to purchase insurance and whatnot. It probably helps that they also have a decent amount of mentors who devote their time to the team
