Re: Press Release -- FIRST in ALL NH Schools
FRC teams in every school would be possible if the teams that have over $15000 of sponsorship would give the excess sponsorship to other schools. My team does very well on about that much. I think that one key that we do to save money is scrap old robots rather than keep them on display. This saves alot of money on metal. We havent bought wheels in over five years. we also always go to the closest regional, that always saves money. This year with the DC regional, we are commuting on the Metro so we will be spending no money on the competition. ALSO an interesting idea for sponsorship; if big companies donated money straight to FIRST and then was distributed to teams that need money equally. obviously there would have to be some kinks worked out of the system but in the long run it would make the playing field slightly more equal.
No offense to the teams that do any of the things above, i am just putting this out here.
