Re: Hexbug contest?

Keep in mind, raising money through companies and dedicated sponsors is the standard way to start a rookie team. HoustonRobotics.org and the NASA grants are also good way of connecting schools to companies and setting up a sustainable funding program.

With or without the $6K , I still think this is a great marketing trick for radioshack, I hope more electronics/retailers jump on the bandwagon (i.e. Best Buy, Fry's, Walmart )
