Re: how often does your team meet during build season?

Most likely our team will meet every weeknight from about 5:00-9:00. That gives the mentors time at their real job, and the students a couple of hours after school for homework.

Saturdays will be all day, about 9:00 or 10:00 to 5:00. Longer if we're behind.

Some Sundays, if the site is open. We also give up holidays like MLK day to work.

As ship date approaches, time may be extended later into the evenings.

Students are expected to be there as often as possible, given their other commitments. Missing a Sunday because of church is expected; missing because you just didn't feel like getting up isn't a good excuse.

If you cut out non-essentials, such as video games, tv and texting, you can concentrate on both build, homework, and your other activities. CD is the only website you need for 6 weeks.
