Re: Travel for Championship Qualifying Teams

We qualified in the second-last week of regionals last year by winning Midwest. We were able to get package deals through THC still at a hotel not too far away and everyone was on the same floor.

It was impossible to find flights without splitting our team of about 40 into 5 or 6 groups, and then the prices were outrageous. We ended up chartering a bus.

We also managed to raise all the funds for this from sponsors in two weeks, our community is great.

All the pre-planning we had done for nationals last year was to raise as much as possible, and go crazy with arrangements at the end.
