Re: How has the recession affected your team?

We lost a potential corporate sponsor; they already sponsor another team in our state (I'm not sure on anything more specific than the state, geographically). Last year we did not do a whole lot of fund-raising -- we were a bit overwhelmed with the first year experience as it was, and our team was rather small -- but we have received a few sponsors this year. The recession definitely lost us some potential aid, but we're still pushing for an engineer if they can spare one.

I wish luck to all the other teams experiencing hardships, and to all the teams that don't exist yet.
