Do you know if a lot of the schools are succeeding? We looked at going to the Championship Conference last year, and I think opted against it because it just seemed like so much work & risk for so little reward (at least in comparison to our patron drive - 100% profit for 10 min training, no cost). I know FIRST and people everywhere are giving "Going Green" a lot of hype, but if I owned a business, I think I would be skeptical of hiring a student to do a green audit for me.
