It cost about $15k to send a team, 2 coaches and every team has to bring an ump or at least pay for one to go to Cooperstown



And how is that everyone else's problem? Pay for your own recreation/vacation. It's not like you qualified for Cooperstown. Anyone who writes a check can go

Just do like all the other travel parents - do a Super Bowl board, only $50 per square but at least you can win something

Or raffle off one of those huge whiskey and alcohol packages

Make the kids go mow some lawns all summer on their off days if you want a free vacation

Oh, I’m not saying it’s everyone else’s problem. When we went, we had garage sales we did raffles fundraisers, we had the kids go out there and hustle up money even though every parent on the team had enough money to cover the cost, we made the kids go out there and hustle and earn a portion of the expenses.

That $15k doesn’t cover airfare, renting a house for a week, paying for siblings, etc. shite ain’t cheap

But I’m in no way endorsing asking for money without giving something back in return.

The year/week we went we brought 2 teams basically and the other team won the whole thing that week.
