Re: Chronic Problems

One of the most effective strategies for fund raising is to simply not spend every penny you get. Our team is not done fundraising for THIS year until we have enough money to compete in at least one regional NEXT year. It took us a few years with a goal of $1K more than we started with to get to this point. But now that we are here, we intend to maintain our stash.

It takes a lot of the pressure off and ensures that there will be a team next year, no matter what. We might only go to one regional instead of our normal 2 and the Championship, but we will compete.

A little financial planning can go a long way...
