The nice thing is they have the whole building to themselves so in recent years they've also invited in other local FRC teams to use the space along with FLL and FTC teams in the fall.
Since the school also has a gym, they were able to set up a full time practice field too.  |
Unfortunately, it doesn't appear our district has any unused space. My understanding of the situation is that the district is going to purchase an old building, not much, something like a shop on a strip, and allow us to use it. So not as sweet as a school, but a start.
