Re: Cost of going to Championship

I just got the breakdown of our expenses for this year last night:

Quote:
Bus $3,750
Hotel $6,143
Food $2,800
Sub $1,400
Tips $350
Registration $5,000
Departments $737

Total $20,243
We were fortunate to receive over $12,000 from various sponsors, which was enough to make our cost to the students/parents only $450 each as well as provide financial assistance to those who needed it.

$450/student was less than the Championship cost last year, even though our entry fee was covered by NASA last year and up to us to pay this year. That fact is something we are all very proud of.
