Re: Member Registration Fees

Our team allows our students to choose which events they want to go to each year: Orlando, Travel Competition, and Championship(if qualify or register). That allows us to know how much each student needs to attain in either fundraising or getting sponsorships which goes towards travel costs and hotel. We also allow the students to either funraise towards a team shirt or to just pay for one.

Since we consider Orlando our home competition and we do not need a hotel it only costs $25 for each student to go to that competition even if they do not go to any other competition; this has been very helpful for first timers that are not completely sold on the team. Most times if a student went to all 3 in one year it would range from $700-$850 per student. We also allow students and/or their parents to pay any leftover if they couldnt acquire the needed amount to pay for the competitions they had signed up for, but we do not allow for any one student and/or their parents to completely pay for their travel out of pocket.
