So I send out a friendly text reminder through twitter the night before and the day of. Not only this but the students can't lie to their parents about having to go to a robotics meeting anymore!
We make our kids follow our team as well for updates. Does the 40404 "follow #username" work for any twitter account? Does this require your number be hooked up with your twitter account?

Thanks,
