Engagement with schools

Engagement with existing or recent coaches/teams

We are putting together a plan to get a foot in the door with schools - Tim is drafting a letter/message

Aaron will work with state FLL coordinator to try help get us engaged with existing/recent teams

With the recent changes in the Deere grant system we probably will consider providing some financial support to teams
