Rookie Loses Sponsor, Save Them!
In today's South Oakland Tribune there was an article about team 1188 (DE-STA-CO Industries & Royal Oak Schools/ Dondero&Kimball Royal Oak, MI USA ).

Aparently last week DE-STA-CO Industries decided not to sponsor the team. What does this mean? They can't afford to compete. They've already tried local businesses (according to the article) but many of us know how that goes. Local businesses jump at the chance to support football or basketball but not something like robotics.

The team is currently signed up to go to Great Lakes and West Michigan Regionals, but it is now doubtful they will be able to afford it.

If you, your company, or someone you know, or someone you know's company, or someone they.. you get the point.. would be able to sponsor the rookie team:
