Moorhead to the Cities is a wee bit more than two hours my friend. I'm not saying every week, but one trip a year seems reasonable. Friday and Saturday night.

Regardless, quite a bit further from Roseau than Moorhead!
Roseau rotates with a few city teams every other year, also hits St Cloud, Brainerd, Grand Rapids.......maybe if you wanted to fund some additional trips, they'd be open to more travel.
I agree, one weekend trip a year is reasonable. They are doing it every other now with TG and Blaine. Like they did with Johnson years ago. Can't use Moorhead on I-94 or DE on I-35 as an example of why Roseau should also do it. Those schools have half (or less) the driving time to the cities. May come as a surprise to city folk, but there is a lot of real estate in Minnesota north of the cities, and Roseau is on the furthest reach of it, unlike Moorhead or Duluth who to a northerner are almost suburbs.Neutron 14 wrote:Here we go again?

You add 82 miles to save 27 minutes going to Drayton and using I-29 and I-94 vs. trip via Bagley and such. When I was a kid, the interstates were 55 MPH limits, so it would make absolutely no sense going the Drayton way, but I could see it being more attractive now to only have a little over one hour on a two lane highway to get to much faster and easier roadways to get to the cities.SiouxRecruit wrote:HERE EVERYONE...so you all know how far Roseau is from ANYWHERE...and then moorhead
