Re: Team in Danger!
Well, our team is in it's rookie year, but we have members from all over the county and even some out of it. Members come mostly from my high school's SCI-MA-TECH (sicence-math-thelastpartexplainsitself) group, especially the sophmore class. The other largest group is from the Manufacturing Tech. Academy for precollege students attached to the city college, some from the other high shool in the city (rivalry aside), and like I said, a few from other nearby highschools. I'm the only member on the team that actually just showed up, as far as I can tell, and I'm a senior to boot. The problem I've noticed with it, though, is that there are too many people from every place on the list that either dont have transportaion, motivation, and I am starting to think that a lot of the 50+ (Yeah I know...) people at our first meet before the kickoff didnt understand the sort of commitment they were really in for. Plus conflicts with sports schedules, and there are maybe 15 of us on actual full-time duty. So, in a situation like ours, having a multischool team was just about the only way to actually get any motivated, dedicated people to go on all of this. I dont know if that helps any, but I hope it might add just a bit to the influx of information.
