There are so many people that can endorse FIRST. There are a list of celebrities, but I believe that they are not necessary. What you need is to have is a group of people, that go around the country reaching out to every high school in the country, endorsing first. In the amount of money it would cost to buy commercial time and pay the celebrities, FIRST could afford to send nearly every school in the country a packet on the FIRST robotics program. I also think that FIRST should get political figures to endorse the program. It sure would be nice to hear President Bush to mention the FIRST robotics program during the state of the union address, or at any other time for that matter. I think that it also would be a good idea to have a team of FIRST people set up that can travel the country and help rookie teams create their programs. The more people we have looking for new teams and the more endorsing we do, the more teams we will have in the future. Keep in mind Dean's Homework assignments that he gives to all of us at nationals. We are the future of FIRST. We need to recruit new teams. I would love to see 100+ new teams next year.

Good Luck to everyone at the invitationals.
