4) You got to play with or against teams (depending on your luck) like 33, 67 and 469 and many other good teams a lot.
5) MSC is insane, enough said. You don't have to travel to Michigan just to watch it. You can be part of it.
6) Just got this from FIRST in Michigan. This year 249 people volunteered at more than one competition event.
7) Just in case you need a day job to pay the bills so you can do what you really like, there are plenty of good paying engineering jobs in Michigan.

Not to mention that RUSH is a great team to work with! I had the privilege of being a mentor with RUSH for a few years before I was able to start my own team, and I had a great time while I was with them. I learned so much about what it means to be a FIRST Robotics team from them...so much of the success of my current team can be attributed to things I learned while working with RUSH.
