Re: FIRST Competition Entry Fee Increases for 2005
I'm pretty pressed to see that happening, but I bet there's a simpler solution, one you kinda see at regionals anyway. Wait a week or two after kickoff, then invite a bunch of teams for a big FIRST swap meet. You get rid of those extra kit parts that you know you won't use, but you get more of what you need. (Probably wouldn't have been bad to have some more window motors for us...we coulda used some spares for driving!)
And of course, there's always bringing back old stuff from prior kits that can still be used.
