i wouldnt say finding your events is that difficult, but it just depends what you have cause some of the events are just really really far apart. my friend had write it do it and then ornithology next to each other; she had to sprint to orni and still got there late.

The distance between Thayer (home base) and the field house is about a mile. So if you have one event in one place and one event in the other right after each other it may be difficult getting there in time althought i haven't had that happen to me before.

Okay, so it's a lot bigger than New Paltz then. I think I can deal.
So are invitationals at Ravena again for B division?

West Point is considerably larger than New Paltz, but the issue is mostly that there's one building- the field house, I think it's called- that isn't near anything else and is all the way down a hill. I had to sprint down there for Trajectory right after Envi Chem... bit of an adventure. Also, apparently carrying the Trajectory down there was just tons of fun (I had an event during impound, so I wasn't actually involved, but I was regaled with stories afterwards).

Well, that's always annoying. Are tech events usually held there?

Most of the are. I don't think Towers or Mission were there last year.

Towers was in the auditorium of the building where our team room was, and I have no idea where Mission was (I don't remember if you could watch Mission or not, but it's irrelevant because our Mission team forbade us from watching anyway lmao).
