Provide specific information concerning travel arrangements, lodging, meals, and any additional pertinent information. (e.g., roster of individuals traveling). The Travel Itinerary must be specific, realistic, and accurate.

Part II: Within the same MS Word document, provide a 1-2 page (double spaced text) explanation indicating why an athletic program (i.e., team) should make a comprehensive travel itinerary.
