Congratulation for the two “yes” you got! It’s always good to hear about more options for your future. You are going to have a busy year if you decide to start a team… It’s tough work. But I am sure it’s lots of fun.
About BORG… BORG didn’t enter the competition this year for some reason, so there is nothing for me to help them out. I am not so sure about the future though, that’s one question I don’t have any answer to.
Lehrbaum might be coming up with something, or he might not… What it is I can’t tell you. All I can say is that I probably will join in his effort if there is actually something going on. Who knows?
After all, this IS the rumor mill

It was Dean’s Homework assignment, and i believe I passed… Anyway, I’m working on a site devoted specifically to provide information on starting FIRST teams. Hopefully it will be up for you all by this summer. I’ll keep you posted.
Anyone who would like to help can also contact me

I will be starting one in California next year in an area with no first teams (can you believe it?!) I have a high school and ideas about some pretty nice sponsors. Anyone up to help? I will have to learn to deal with the 3 digits (possible 4!) I will just miss the old one and two digit team number days…oh well!!
power to those who have patience to start and run a team.

The Inland Valley Area-
probably with TVHS (Temecula Valley High School)
LEHS (Lake Elsinore High School)
MHS (Murrieta High School)
and whatever schools are over in Hemet.
I am going to seek sponsorship with Guidant (my brother-in-law is an engineer there and I know a lot of his friends) or one of the other nice large businesses in the area (there aren’t many!)
Feel free to come help me!!!

Actually it’s called the Inland EMPIRE (for all the land barons that used to own it, just kidding, about the land baron part that is). And you’ll have plenty of other teams to play with less than an hour away. Even more within two hours.
In California, within two hours is practically next door. In New England it’s two states over.
Good Luck on getting something started, if we can help let us know
