Do you know if a lot of the schools are succeeding? We looked at going to the Championship Conference last year, and I think opted against it because it just seemed like so much work & risk for so little reward (at least in comparison to our patron drive - 100% profit for 10 min training, no cost). I know FIRST and people everywhere are giving "Going Green" a lot of hype, but if I owned a business, I think I would be skeptical of hiring a student to do a green audit for me.

Excellence - is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, dreaming more than others think is practical, and expecting more than others think is possible.
