Not sure what we would do about doubling the travel costs...other side of the coin is that we would get to participate in two events...
We're a Michigan team with about the same number of students (or slightly less), and we typically go to events that are 150 miles (Escanaba) and ~380 miles away (TC). (and last year, we got to add MSC [550 mi] and CMP [680 mi] to the mix) So it's doable, though we're near the extreme edge of travel distance in Michigan.
