I just wanted to say...

Down here at SPAM the school gave us an old portable to work in and that's become our pit. Other than that we have no support from the school system. We do have sponsorship but we do require a good sum of money from each student to raise (550) but we also have put together a public speaking team to take the robot around for demonstrations to corporations who might be interested in sponsoring us. Also go to your dentist, your orthodontist, insurance agent, ect. they might not give a large sum but $20 is better than none. And I agree with Mike, talk to surrounding teams, and maybe for this year they can let you share their pit with you while your team restablizes itself. Don't know until you ask.
