Re: WHAT TEAM MEMBERS GO TO NATIONALS
I am on WildStang Team 111 and we have a class that is around 70 members so we cannot take everyone.
The teachers and Mentors from Motorola select a group of people (around 25-30) to go to nationals yearly.
Everyone goes to our hometown Midwest Regional and a small crew of about 10 students went to the Great Lakes Regional in the past year.
I always saw Nationals as a reward for a job well done and I always worked my hardest so I could participate.
As for funds... We do a bunch of fundraisers, right now we are selling Fannie May Candy. We also sell Entertainment books, have a huge raffle, and partner with local commiunities to get part of their earnings given to us. (for example Roly Poly Sandwiches is donation 15% of their profits from this Thurday Night's sales) We also get help from our sponser (Motorola Inc.) and School Dist. 214.
