How to raise money for championship in a matter of weeks

[Jack Jones]

The other choice, and it's not as distasteful as it sounds, would be to plan to go next year. Fact is, it's hard hard hard to raise the $5k that FIRST demands by COB Tuesday - OR ELSE.

We couldn't afford to go - still can't. If we end up winning one, we'll just say thanks, but no thanks. It's not the end of the world. It's too many $$$ in too little time. OTOH, here in S.E. Michigan, we can go to IRI $350 - Sweet Repeat $350 - Kettering Kickoff $250 - RaCahCha $100.

They're not the Championship - but 14.2857 IRIs could put Atalanta out of business.
