Is there usually this much frustration?

[Jim Zondag]

In Michigan, we produce our own events locally for as low as $10,000 each. We now run all 10 of our Michingan events for less than the cost of a single traditional FRC regional. FRC Events don't need to be expensive, but they will be if you use the standard model.
If you have an issue with event and program costs, follow our lead. These things can be changed.
The key to sustainable growth in FRC depends on 2 things:
1. reducing the price of entry.
2. increasing return on investment for participation.
