You get more of those smart farm kids(1) that can make mechanisms out of anything and you'll be even more scary. I do see from newer posts that you've had fantastic FTC & FLL growth; that's great. And you do have some very good teams; I've always enjoyed being in the same tournament with any of you folks.
For fun, I put you in the mythical MO/KS district and here's where you'd rank:

There would be 87 teams in an IA/MO/KS district. 3 Iowa in the top 10 is a bit top-heavy; maybe we don't want you.
(1) I'm allowed to say possibly stupid things about Iowa in an attempt to be funny; I grew up there.

I love to see the Iowa teams doing well. And that was a serious statement about the farm kids.
