Re: Do you think we have enough time?
Glad to see everything worked out for the robot, FIRST said everything is fine for registering for ours, and even said if we couldn't stop it from being shipped to us they would trust us to just ship it right back out again without opening it. Now our problem is just getting paperwork done by Fri. (it looks like we have teachers who can go with already).
The money problem, I don't think our team is going to run into that issue (hopefully, the President is checking funds right now...). I know for Nationals last year, we contacted our current sponsors, and they were actually willing to give us more money (that might have been because it was for Nationals though). You might want to contact your current sponsors and see if they'd be willing to help out anymore. The other thing we did was just local fundraising (we actually went door to door in our neighborhood to try to get some money). You can try carawashes or just asking for donations. You won't get as much that way, but every little bit counts.
Just heard update, we can't use school vans or buses for out of state trips, so suddenly things are a little bit more complicated...
