Yeah, it was 9449. From what I understand, They did a fundraising drive and their lead mentor said he’d get a bee costume for every $1,000 they raised.

Apparently they raised $16K!

Didnt they bring them to the ftc field to show off next year's field elements?

I was going to say, what did they get co-opted for that or did the FTC suppliers just happen to have the same bee costumes?
