Compare this to MAR, which spends about 22K for a district event and 65K for the DCMP. Why are the costs so different? I understand that MAR is getting the venue for the DCMP for pretty cheap, but why are district events expected to be much pricier than in MAR? |
Excellent question. Without proof, I predict that these are the major drivers of the cost differences you've identified between here and MAR:
- It hasn't been stated explicitly, but it appears that FIRST Chesapeake proposes to purchase professional event management services, e.g. those from Show Ready Events.
- It hasn't been stated explicitly, but it appears that FIRST Chesapeake proposes to continue to fund 3 Regional Director-level positions, even after the 1-year transitional support from FIRST for these positions is eliminated.
