Re: Bag & Tag

Well, given how much shipping costs, it's not that big of a surprise. 10 years ago, it wasn't so bad to get all the shipping donated. With the huge growth of the program, though, it starts to become a problem. This way, FIRST can direct the shipping donation towards teams that really need it (have to travel a long way for competition, travel to champs, etc), while everyone else can handle things themselves. Honestly, I was happy last year when Minneapolis went to bag and tag - It seemed ridiculous to cost FIRST so much in shipping the previous years when we could load the robot in the back of a truck and drive it 20 mins to the venue.
