What is new this year for Palms?
 
Online Coaches Support for all coaches!
This year we will host online meetings for coach support! That’s right we know you are busy so we want to help you connect with us from the comfort of your own digital device!! We are a huge region and want to provide you with support as much as possible! We will learn about brainstorming (don’t use one of your first 10 -15 ideas – did you know that?) how to read an odyssey problem – it’s not easy and we will ask you what you want to talk about so we meet your needs!
Structures? Sound Scary? Not this year! What a great problem – and we have our own support for structures coaches and teams! All you have to do is – well say yes! If your teams say yes when we ask – well we will offer our structures teams a one of kind meet up to learn from engineers and others about all types of structures in our world.
Any idea of things that will support you? We are ready to listen – you can email or find us on  facebook page or twitter – we are out there and easy to find!
Speaking of support – One last thing – this year we have stepped outside our box and have been scouting out support for our region. We function solely on donations and volunteers. Our money goes to help the region do the best job we can for our kids. Thank you to the following companies who have already shown their support this year:
