So how much money does your team spend each year?
$15k-$20k for 2-3 events is a good estimate.

If you need help organizing, applying for the NASA grant, or building, you are more than welcome to contact my team (hit me at jared@team341.com) or any of the other great veteran teams in the Philadelphia area.

Where, more precisely, is your school?
