Wow, I guess different districts have different ideas about what a "hike" is. I would LOVE to have three events within an hour and 30 minutes of most (vast majority for MAR?) locations in my district.

Believe me, I was spoiled by being within the North/Central Jersey team cluster. I learned how lucky MAR teams are when I attended FLR with 2791, our second closest regional, which was three and a half hours away.

The farthest I had ever traveled with 1257 was to the Springside Chestnut Hill event my freshman year. It was an hour and a half away, but I got to play 2012 341 so I'd say it was worth it.

Just out of curiosity, what is the 1 team in Monmouth County, NJ? I've been looking into that area and didn't see one...

I think it's 4128 in Holmdel.

EDIT: It would appear they no longer compete. Not sure who it is then.

Our first closest district event is three hours away. Sure beats when Traverse City was the closest at about seven hours.

This also brings to light another point. Does anyone know the precise border of MAR in Pennsylvania? So far it's largely been a non-issue, since the vast majority of teams in PA are clustered in the general area of either Philadelphia or Pittsburgh. But at some future point, if teams start springing up in those counties cut in half on this diagram, are they MAR teams or regional teams?
