Re: How much does your school support your FIRST Team?

Unfortunately our team doesn't get much in terms of help from our school, we get to use some empty space for our 1/2 playing field and thats about it, no funding, and very little support.

I envy teams that are lucky enough to have community that cares, because no amount of advertising, demonstrating, ect, seems to have any effect for getting people interested for us. We even tried to get a few of the local new channels to come check out a few of the events we hosted, only to have them not return our calls (quite rude).


Guess we just have to keep trying.
