We have several requirements on 461;
1. $300 dollars of fundraising (most of the time, we just have parents pay for what we don't raise)
2. I think it is 80% attendence (which included PR events)
3. We have a clock-in/clock-out system that shows how many hours we have worked. This counts for advisors and high school students. more hours = dedication and dedication = traveling to nationals (and if we are lucky we get to go with the Tech crew) take a look at our times:
