Re: Questions about the WORLD championship, so far.

MOE 365 took a bus last year - as Robomom said, the trip was overnight and you don't get much sleep, but it did save on one night at a hotel. I can get you the name of the bus company we used if you need it. This year, thanks to a suggestion from the NEMO conference at Ramp Riot, we got group rates on air tickets from Philly to Atlanta on AirTrans.

We had looked at traveling by Amtrak, which you could do from either Philly or Newark. It is an overnight trip similar to the bus. However, you would have to skip the wrap party Sat. night as it leaves about 8:00 PM.

We also have some mentors/parents who drive and take tools and other pit supplies. And of course buckets of buttons as well.

If you can make it the Atlanta, do so - it's an experience your team will never forget!
