This is why I am happy to see DCMP move to Week 6. Planning our first trip to CMP was enough of a headache, and was with us starting early after our Week 1 district win. I can't imagine putting the whole thing together in 1.5 weeks. It wasn't until this year that I understood why so many teams decline their CMP invites.
