Well, like the next poster snarkily replied, I posted here . But what else did you have in mind? I think that asking other teams to help us during the build season would detract valuable resources from that other team.

There are preseason workshops in NYC, which I went to last year, but had zero idea of what I was doing, having never been on a team in the past. Now that I have, I think I'll get more out of them next year, and can insist on students coming along.

Another thing that I failed to mention in my original post is that NYC doesn't have a "zoned" system for high schools. Therefore, some of our students live literally two hours away from the school. So that's a problem in that after a long build day, they need to get home, do other homework, and then get enough sleep to be functional the next day.
