Thanks for all the offers to help. We appreciate it. We chose NJ because of teams 11 and 25 and the fact that our team chose to go to NY afterwards. We didnt do a NYC regional due to time schedule conflicts with our students taking finals.
What makes our trip more expensive is chartering a bus to take us from NJ on a tour of New York after, including stops to the Statue of Liberty and Empire State Building tours, for a total of 6 hours. Then we are staying near Times Square for 3 days to enjoy NY.
Total cost for 25 people. $37,000 not including spending money.

Our team members are also on our Electric Vehicle team. We spent November in NY and raced in New Hampshire also.

Then our team flys back home and go back 2 1/2 weeks later to Vegas for our second regional, then come home and possibly go back 3 weeks later to Atlanta for the championships.

Thats a lot of cookies to sell.......~$100,000 worth of expenses per year........
