Hi. I'm still pretty new in Philly, only managed to come orienteering once in the last year.  But, possibly interested in going to the Champs at end March.  Are other people going?  Do people fly (Cincinatti?) and then hire cars?  Any info on what is the normal way to do this would be appreciated.  Thanks, Graeme

I don't think there's really a normal way. Some people fly, some people drive. 9-10 hours driving from Philly. For flying, Lexington KY or Charleston WV airports make the most sense based on the location of the event this year. Some people have groups they usually travel with, but there are often other individuals looking to share expenses.

You may want to post a thread under the event on Attackpoint as well, if looking for ride/rental car/lodging share.

Hope to see you at the (conveniently located) Fox Chaser II.
