Re: fundraising and beer companies
I think there are laws against beer and liquor companys targeting minors with adverstisements
having a brewery name on a high school team is definately advertising.
Genesee brewery wanted to sponsor a team in Rochester NY a few years back, and it was decided that was a bad idea.
Im not sure who made the call, FIRST, the high school, or the companys legal department?
Personally I dont see the connection between a brewery and FIRST? how many engineers work there? Maybe they can dontate to a general fund from which your team can get money, but to have a brewery as your primary sponsor? I dont think that will go down smoothly :^)
if you could get someone like Busch Gardens, the amusememt park chain that is owned by Busch brewery, that might be a different story.
