Re: Looking to start a team in Syracuse

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!

You should contact member of team 891 Neverending Chaos who dissolved a couple of years ago and see if they can help. Also team 174 the Artic Warriors are in the SYracuse area and could be of assistance as well.
There is alot of help 75 miles due east in Rochester from the X-Cats, team 340 G.R.R. Robotics and the previously mentioned 1511 Rolling Thunder.
Just let us know what you need.
