Sean,

You bring up a very good point.

FIRST California currently moves our field in PODS to offseason events. If I remember correctly, the entire 2015 field was packed into one POD. Unfortunately, I am not privy to what we currently pay for that service. I was going off estimates I could get from other districts.

Very good point. Thanks!
