Re: Suggestions For Developing Off Seasons Without The 'Like IRI' Mindset Trap
Ok, so - I'm not going to be able to go to sleep until I ask these 2 favors. *sigh*
1. Would anyone like to share some talking points for interesting teams (local and regional) in participating in an off season? Please keep in mind that this is all new ground for many of the current teams in our area - many of which work very hard to make their yearly budget as it is without thinking about the possible expense of an off season. Also, one of the reasons teams didn't sign up that we've heard consistently is that teams can't gain access to their shop, robot, tools, mentors, students - or all of the above during the summer months. (Many Texas teams participate in BEST which starts almost as soon as school starts so the fall semester would not be a great time for an off season, most likely.)
2. Would anyone like to share a quote with regard to what participating in an off season has meant to you?
Again, thanks in advance for your help and your ideas.
Jane
