As of this post, we are in California because of VEX worlds. Due to state testing, we have to go home for 1 1/2 days then fly back to St. Louis. The students paid 4-600/each for this as well.
When we did 2 regionals earlier this season in the mainland, we charged 800/each but total cost per person was 2200 for a 15 day trip.
For kids that show 110% effort, I also offer jobs to them to "work" in robotics. Some of them earned close to 1k each before taxes for the season.
For adult mentors, I give them as much as 2k stipends also for the priceless efforts they put forth for our team. It helps them pay for meals and miscellaneous efforts.
