Nothing CNC'd, nothing custom

I have no specific result in mind. Rather, you seem upset that nothing will come from the Governor's visit when you have the power to change that by communicating with her office about the things they may do to help. What results do you want for FIRST in the state of Michigan? The Governor's office, if they see incentive for change in the form of an outspoken populace, will work for FIRST.

Do you want more money? You can have it. Do you want a FIRST team in every high school in the state? You can have that, too. You just need to work at it with your elected officials rather than complain about how they're unable to divine what it is you'd have them do.
