Re: How much does your school's general population care about your team?

This thread is describing the exact issue that FIRST is trying to fix. One day, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, some kid from FIRST is going to change the world. That kid could have easily become a world class sportsman, or something else like that. It's our job to capture those kids and show them the possibilities that Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths present, in the accesibility that is FIRST.

I'm presenting the school with one of our World's Entrepreneurship Trophies next Thursday, and I'm doing it two days before we leave for the Hawaii Regional. It's mainly to gain support from our new principal, but I'm hoping some new kids will see how great this program is, and how it can change lives.
