Looking to start a team in Syracuse
Hi all. I have finally gone off to college and I am without a FIRST team  But I am hoping to make a difference up here at Syracuse. Our University has a large engineering program, and I have talked to a few people and there seems to be some interest in starting a team at one of the local Syracuse high schools. I still have to find sponsors, and of course I need to put together a business plan and recruit people. My goal would be to get a team going by next year with hopes of competing in the 2006-2007 season. I am looking for general advice, contacts, and ideas and procedures for starting a team. I know some teams help other teams getting started, and I was wondering if there are any teams in the Greater Syracuse area that could help me get this under way.
I am only a lowly freshman in college, but I have plenty of time to get things rolling. So all the help would be appreciated, please contact me or post in the forum!
