We keep all the principals of all our schools informed by way of a bi-monthly newsletter. Some schools even invite us to come bring the robots out to their schools. Some even come to competitions. It is the best of both worlds for them, no cost or commitment but something they can offer to their students.
If I may ask what is a 4-H team?

Intresting, has anyone ran into problem thier first year, I would assume that the school would have to coordinate transportation to bring the students
