ok, thanks for tips I will talk to my teacher sponser about grant and I'm not sure about your qustion about how teams get travel paid for
: I have three things to comment on so I will make it short, K
: 1 How do teams with corporate sponsors get travel paid for, and also what sponsors do pay for travel.
: 2. To get sponsors goto your local Chamber of Commerce and get there member directory, then send a letter to all there members telling them about your robot and that you need money.
: 3. HAS ANYBODY THOUGHT OF GRANTS? THEY ARE SO EASY TO GET IF YOU FRASE THEM RIGHT. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SEARCH ON ASK.COM FOR GRANTS, YOU WILL GET HUNDREDS. ALMOST EVERY MAJOR COMPANY HAS A GRANT PROGRAM IN PLACE.
