Good morning! We are less than two weeks away from our trip to Washington DC and New York City. Woohoo!!! I hope that you are excited about our trip as it will prove to be one of the most enjoyable and educational trips of your life. I need to share two things with you:
#1 - We will have our Trip Informational Meeting next Thursday night at 6:30 pm in the MHS Bandroom. At this meeting, we will be discussing and distributing all of the final details regarding our trip. Parents & Students...please make plans to attend.
#2 - At this point, the buses have been paid for and most all of the admission tickets have been purchased for our trip. This amount adds up to over $650. I'm just now having some students tell me that they don't think that they can attend. Please understand that if you have to cancel at this point, you will still be responsible for paying $650 to reimburse the MHS Band for expenses incurred that we are unable to get our money back on. On Monday, we will be ordering the rest of the tickets which will be an additional $120...the other amounts are group meals that we pay for on the trip and hotel rooms. Please understand that when you back out it still raises the cost of everyone else as hotel rooms are divided among the participants ($477 each). I would encourage you to make every effort to attend the trip. Please note that we can now accept payment via credit card through Charms...just look at your financial statement and there is a "pay by credit card" button that connects you to our PayPal Account. If you are unable to attend, please have a parent contact me immediately at the Milton HS Bandroom so that we can discuss different options. Thanks so much.
I hope that all of you have a great rest of the week!
