Project Lead the Way National Symposium

The last two days here in Austin have been filled with presentations and demonstrations. There are about 800 people here from Project Lead the Way, and about 25 different schools. So far, our group has handed out about 200 brochures about the past successes of the InvenTeam at our High School to Project Lead the Way executives and members of other schools. Of the people that we have talked to, we have gotten about 75 to register for our blog and receive blog updates about what the Saratoga Springs InvenTeam is working on. Also, InvenTeam members working on The Guardian received a huge boost when they met with the Director of Public Safety for Minneapolis. He said that if we emailed him, he would possibly be able to help us get the word out about our college safety device. We also met with representatives of the University of South Carolina who told us to email them because they can have some of their Computer Science majors help us with the programming aspect of our project.
