Re: How does your team communicate?

We used Google groups for years, but recently switched to GroupSpaces for the subgroup, secure roster management, and file storage. I add fields to keep track of sub team, parents, graduating year, etc... Each subteam has an email address. We have 200+ entries across the FRC and two FTC teams. Working on loading alumni and boosters next.

We also use google drive/forms to collect information. A google calendar for important dates. Students and parents can pull-in the events into their calendar using the ICS URL. The marketing team also maintains the public website, blog, Facebook, and Twitter feed
