Starting a new Robotics Club

dys2k6 · February 9, 2005, 9:48am

I changed schools this year (I am a junior) and am experiencing symptoms of FIRST withdrawal.

I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice regarding starting a club, finding mentors, applying for grants, finding funding, etc.

I have already recruited several members (we are about 5 strong now) and are hoping to grow even more before we get our charter approved.

We do have a metals shop, as well as a computer lab… so workspace is available.
