Re: Cost of Going to the Nationals
We have over 30 members traveling to nationals this year. Originally each member was going to have to pay in the area of $600 per person. Last week our school board amazingly decided to give our program $10,000. Our school does not have the money to pay for it, but somewhere they found it, most likely due to our win in St. Louis! (Thanks 16 and 967) Each student only has to pay about $150 now and we will be taking a plane and staying for four nights with the FIRST package. After reading the other prices for teams, I feel incredibly lucky for what our team has been given. Good luck to all the other teams traveling. Don't give up on business sponsorship and funraisers. They pay off!
