Re: Taking the plunge. . .

We're in the process of change ourselves.

This is the first year that 157 has gone from a build season only team to a full year team. We're definitely having our growing pains, but its something that the kids have wanted for a long time and they're beyond excited that this is happening. We right now are running into the challenge that our school is going under construction so we're getting pushed out of our build space and into a smaller space - so the fact that we've got time right now to be organized and know what we have and what we have to move (everything) after build season is a giant help. We couldn't have done this with 2 weeks between build season and when we need to be out of our space.

Anyway - we know this year is a build year and we'll see what happens, but we don't see us going anywhere but up. Its really gratifying seeing our students take charge with just a little bit of guidance, not be afraid to share their ideas and want to be leaders. They're super excited about the outreach too and getting our team known into our community, which is awesome.
