Heh. Does anyone?

From our home base to the NJ regional (80 miles) we take a charter bus (actually cheaper than a school bus) plus a mentor drives the team trailer. We stay in a hotel there (4 to a room). When we stayed near by, we van-pooled from the hotel to the arena daily (about 1 mile), but this year we stayed about 5 miles away and had a local school bus company bring us there and back.

To Palmetto and CMP this year, Toronto last year, Cleveland the year before, Palmetto the year before that... Charter bus. three years to CMP we took airplanes, this year it was too late and too expensive.

We use parent/teacher/mentor transport only for off-season events.

I laughed at this. I remember, this year was the first time I went to Trenton for the competition, I was getting over a bad flu, and all I knew was to get to the really tall McDonald's sign, I had to walk 1/2 of a mile next to the highway. Not fun.
