Guys,
Have Herb give me a call or email and I will help in any way I can. I have worked with Holmes Middle School FLL in Wheeling for several years now. In order to separate out the interested students and parents, each student must complete an application and a $20 registration fee. The money shows that there is interest from the parents and it covers the cost of tshirts. The application gives us an idea of the student's abilities and interest. I know where you can apply for some seed money and I can put you in touch with several people who are the state planning committee and part of Incite Illinois, the FLL foundation here in Illinois.
You can register a few spots and if you can't fill them, other school or teams would look to taking them off your hands. We have had several teams who have given up registrations in September or october that they were not using. I can come over and talk to interested parents and teachers anytime.
Just let me know.
Al
