That team would be us 957... They are not from West Albany High School. Soem students from West decided they didn't like our team and helped start the Scalawags or Venture Crew 308 Team 1359. I don't know if they have home school kids but they have kids from 5 area high schools and are not under any school name. They don't want to be associated with our team but its very tough as we see students from both teams at our school daily. Our school is starting to recognize this. We are actually supposed to be in a school assembly together but i'm not sure that is going to work out. We include West Albany High School and this year we included Lebanon High School. East Linn Christian School is the school that they put down as their school on the Nasa grant according to ortop.org ... As with any situation like this it is very confusing. We have been told that they can't be associated with us on a school level or we both could lose grants among other things, Again this is stuff i have heard, so if there are any corrections please correct me.

Nate
