nats is a dream for us .. but realistically it probably wont happen this year ... we are lucky enough to be only 15 minutes away approximately from the arena where the Canadian Regional is being held so we don't have to worry about hotels and plane tickets for that .. and yes businesses and companies do respect an adults word over a teenagers, but the stipulation for the team was that it would be student-run, however during phone calls, i do make sure the company knows that they can speak to our principal to make sure that we are actually a team

I am also interested in operator/safety captain badges, pins, or any other handouts your team may have given out that you would be willing to mail to Canada.
