Elgin,

Well said. One of the things we do on our team is empahsize from the start that the program is sooooo much more than robots. Every good educational program needs a vehicle. In this one the robot is the vehicle.

After 4 years of existence we finally got that message across to the School Comm and they are now contributing to the financial health of the team. So by being an education driven team, not a field of competition results oriented team like some, we are able to spend some more time teaching instead of fundraising.
