How can my school afford to send an entire team to the finals?
One hundred of the best teams from across the country will be invited to compete in the finals on May 14, 2011, at Great Meadow, The Plains, VA. The entire team does not necessarily have to come to the finals, although we expect at least one member plus the supervising teacher/adult, or parent of a team member, to attend if a team is selected. Because the rockets for this event are fairly complex and only student team members are allowed to prepare and launch their rockets, it may be advisable to have more than one student team member at any of the launches of your rocket. We do recommend that teams establish a budget committee which would track the team finances and solicit sponsorships from local businesses in their communities. Think about the organizations, businesses or people in your community that are supportive of education and technology. These are good places to start. You may need to do a little research and brainstorm with your teacher supervisor and family members to come
