I have been charged with starting a new discovery trunk program.  It like I can go one of a few ways: docents take trunks into classroom; museum checks out trunks to schoool districts; museum mails trunks to schools upon request.  

Could anyone elaborate on the pitfalls of any of these options?  To include everything in the trunks to make them exceptional: repros; educational supplements; teacher packets; drives up the cost even more.  It seems like mailing the trunks and docent travel would be the most costly, but perhaps more effective.

Any tips on keeping costs of production low, and standards high?
