The group boarded two school buses at 6:00 AM from Wilmington and arrived in Raleigh by 9:00 AM. After a day of performances and workshops, the group boarded at 4:30 PM to return to Wilmington by 8:00 PM. Each school bus had basic A/C and overhead storage for instrument cases, and the group budgeted around $4,000 total for the two buses, which included a full-day rate for each vehicle.
