Funding can be a major problem but it can be overcome. We won the Lone Star Regional saturday with several other awards. We determined we needed approximately eight thousand dollars to go back on Wednesday. With hard work Sunday night and all of Monday we have covered that cost with more donations still coming in. We have decided to continue the fundraising until we leave to begin to acquire funds for next year. I do attribute this partly to my town of 5,000 and the connection they have with our school. But I believe the only way to get money is to go ask. They may say no but then again they may say how much and get their checkbook out. I can't wait to get back to Houston, it to cold in Kansas.
