Hi Michael!! We too are shooting for about $25,000 to do two regionals and nationals (if we can get in) this year. Last year we did $20,000 for two regionals (one local and one out of state). So far we are only at about $8,000 - so far to go, so little time. Our team usually has about 30 students attending the local competition and about 20 attending the out of state ones. Unless we have extra money, students usually have to pay their own travel. Last year, we had extra so they only had to pay for half their travel. Good luck.
