Last, FIRST please do whatever it takes to put a monitor or screen on the Pit side of the curtain. LA had zip, zero, nothing, nada. Even just a 15" computer monitor or 13" TV would be better than nothing. Had we known, we could have brought like 2 LCD projectors and screens from school.

Perhaps you didn't hear about the dismal financial situation of the LA (SoCal) Regional this year. Except for its first year, LA has been somewhat underfunded (no team party), and this year it was even more serious. That's why we had undersized or nonexistent media. We are VERY grateful to the sponsors who stuck with us this year!
There are prospects for better funding in 2005, but if it doesn't come through, "zip, zero, nothing, nada" will apply to the whole regional. FIRST cannot afford to pull us out of another hole next year. (Which is why a certain committee member asked team 330 to pray for that additional funding.)
If you haven't seen the discussion on FIRST funding, go to:
