Welcome to the world of High School Robotics. This yeard our football team won 1 game, Homecoming. Needless to say, our record isn't too impressive. However, they get their funding every year (they don't even have to continue asking for it). Our FIRST team (Baxter Bomb Squad), however, has a very successful record, especially when compared to our football team. In 2001, however, Baxter was retooling their local plant and couldn't devote either the manpower or money to make it happen. Although we did manage to compete in another competition (BEST), we realized we needed to become more financially independant. Last year we founded a non-profit group called STG (The Science and Technology Group). It lobbies companies year-round for money. I would suggest looking into something like this.
