Israeli Teams need help at St. Louis!

[dtengineering]

It may, perhaps, be most useful to ask St. Louis area teams NOT attending the Championship for assistance.

They may be able to devote all of their batteries, all of their tools and spares, their robot cart, and perhaps a mentor with a suitable vehicle and knowledge of the local Home Depots and other stores to the cause of supporting international teams.

In fact, this might be a great initiative to involve local teams that haven't qualified, by making a few key people "honorary members" of overseas teams and helping them out.

After all, its not just Israeli teams that will face these challenges!

You don't happen to have a way to contact the state coordinator or whatever of St Louis area, right?

While I am not quite a coordinator, I will contact my friends on other teams and see if they will step up. I am assuming they will, as many area teams are very friendly.

Several 2068 students are going down to championship to help Rookie team 4472. I will see what I can do about 2068's chargers/batteries making the trip.
