Re: GE Sponsorship

Our GE sponsorship is all handled at the local level. We have a mentor from our local GE facility that handles the whole thing though. However, the location that we are sponsored by is a recent addition to GE and the check we get still has the old name of the company on it. I don't know if that makes a difference or not.

We have seen some teams in our area that seem to be solely funded by GE (their only sponsor listed at competitions, on t-shirts, etc.), we are nowhere near that level of support. But by going local and by having a mentor from the facility on board we get opportunities for plant tours and other things that might not be possible with a corporate level sponsorship.
