More Publicity...???

Here's an idea to get more publicity for FIRST: e-mail/write to major newspapers (major LOCAL papers, that is) and to major local news channels (e.g. Channels 4, 5, and 7), and tell them about the program and when competition dates are and give them links to past competitions.

Well, what do you think? Do you think it has any chance at all of working? Any suggestions?

Channel 13 (a local news station in Indianapolis) is going to have a news crew down on Friday and maybe Saturday of the competition. We were on (13) on Monday of this week after we were champions the the Motorola Midwest Regional. They are comming down to do updates on our teams progress and just to see what the competition is like. This could be a big step for Indianapolis to spread the word of FIRST because we are the only team in Indianapolis.

Wow! Channel 13 is the best in Indy... that is pretty good, and suprising that they will be down in Indy. Send 'em over to our pit when you're done with them, David!

News releases are sent out to all the teams' local stations that are in the finals, as well as after the competition.

-Jessica B, #237, whose job last year was to stand on the media platform and watch the finals...red alliance numbers written on my left hand, blue alliance on my right...and as SOON as the finals were over, fly through the croud to the media tent so we could start faxing again

I've tried e-mailing ESPN to see if they will be in Orlando. Everyone keeps telling me to e-mail someone else. So now about 20 people at ESPN know what's going on but who knows what will happen. A local news station in Norfolk, Va came to Williamsburg to film our robot the weekend before shipping. We did some practice stuff and it went on the 5:00 and the local 24 hour news station. People here know about it now and have come by our school to see us.
