Retired people have nothing but time, the rest of us have work limited vacation to deal with. But as a bachelor I also know my schedule is a lot more flexible than some, have a few retired friends that are now having grandchildren and seem to have very limited time for other things.
Many places can be a one day ride away, but if there are fun roads between here and there, and I don't need to be there until Sunday, or Saturday, I'll usually take 2 days.

"Retired people have nothing but time???"
I have not found that extra time yet.
“The Only Trouble with Retirement….You Never get a Day Off!”
STLTHMSTA:
I used to like you Carl. :^) TM
HawkGTRider:
Carl's comment about never having a day off is spot on. Retired folks tend to fill their plates to overflowing with volunteer activities that last year around.
Ride4MS:
When you volunteer once, it seems that the word gets out that Carl is always willing to help, and you get many calls.
I think that is how I became the STAR 2018 Coordinator.
One of my Volunteer Positions is: Carl's Escort Service.
I give our Grandsons rides to and from school when needed. The pay is none, but I get lots of, "We Love You Grandpa."
Speaking of a STAR Coordinator or Committee, I think that should formed before a location is announced.
