Yeah matt got here first. I do plan to stay involve with FIRST a least through my high school's team but would like to expand a little more in the Great Plains. And BTW congrats on winning regional chairman's this year. I've heard a lot about the great program you run there and it is definitely a model to other FIRST teams. Thanks for the help. I am just finishing a e-mail or letter (don't know which one would get better response, I do know which one is cheaper) to send to local science and technology teachers to inform and see about any interest. If I get some interest I will probably start working with that teacher and trying to get things started to set-up including looking for funding and making contact with the university. By next year there will be 8 or 9 students who have been on FIRST teams and some have already express some interest if I could spark anything. So hopefully I find an interested teacher and then everything might work. Thanks again for your help and interest.
