Re: How has the recession affected your team?

Surprisingly enough, we've been doing pretty well. We never had a large sponsor or group of sponsors to begin with so we don't have much to lose. We lost some of the funding from our school because they felt it would be spent better elsewhere but it wasn't a big deal. Fund Raising's been a bit difficult because people don't want to spend as much as they normally would but, the big thing is to remind them they're not buying something - They're Supporting your team and getting something in return.
