Re: FIRST has $8 Million?!? What did I miss?
That tax return covers the 2006 season, when there were 1133 teams and 33 regionals. Some interesting numbers:
KoP cost to FIRST per team: ~$2000
FRC Regional cost to FIRST per event: ~$150,000
FRC Regional cost to FIRST per team: ~$4400
Shipping/Drayage cost to FIRST per team: ~$425
Playing field cost per team: ~$800
Championship cost per team that went (258 teams): ~$7300
Sounds like your $6000/$4000 registration fee goes a long way
