MURFREESBORO, Tenn. - With the excitement of a new football season for Middle Tennessee just around the corner, the Blue Raider Athletic Association is proud to announce executive coach trips to three 2011 road games.

Signature Transportation Services will provide private executive coaches, featuring 33 reclining leather seats and a flat screen TV, to the games at Purdue (Sept. 3/11 am), Troy (Sept. 24/3:30 pm) and Tennessee (Nov. 5/TBA). Kickoff time of the game at Tennessee has not yet been announced. Buses for the Purdue and Troy games will leave on Friday afternoon, while the bus for Tennessee will depart day of game. Buses will return to Murfreesboro 45 minutes after the end of the game.

Prices for the three trips vary. The cost of the Purdue trip is $75.00 per person for the bus and $115 for the room at Baymont Inn and Suites in Lafayette. The deadline to sign up for the Purdue game is August 2.

The Troy trip is $100 per person for the bus and the hotel room at the Courtyard Marriott will be $100. The deadline to sign up for the Troy game is Sept. 8.
