Re: Whole Teams or Sub Teams
We have been lucky enough to go to CMP for the past 5 years...
After the first year we decided that CMP would be for the upperclassmen only. The reason for this is that it is a big burden for parents to have to come up with plane tickets for 4 years...
We take about half the team this way...this year we have about 18 students traveling...
We are looking at this right now. We are going to discuss a separate requirement that will not allow a team member to go unless they have been on the team for at least 1 year...
We haven't really had a problem with juniors coming in just to travel... but we want to head of this potentiality...
We fund raise to come to CMP every year... being in Seattle we have to make travel arrangements early so this makes sense for us...
If we ever have a year that we don't qualify we have decided to come and volunteer anyway....
So far we haven't had to do that... we have qualified 7 times in 5 years.
