We are really excited to get this school year going and continue to prepare for our trip to NYC. I wanted to take a minute to update you about what has been going on this summer:
Payment:
- Our next payment of $100 is due Sept. 1. Most students will be covered by fundraising for this payment. We handed out slips with what is owed for this payment the first day of school. There is also a google classroom for the trip where we can post information about the trip. On that site we have a sheet that keeps track of payments that you can reference. It uses their student ID number, or if you are a parent traveling with us, it uses the last 4 digits of your cell phone number. You can always contact Miss Medick for an amount as well.
- The third payment of $200 is due Oct. 1.
NYC Confirmations:
- Three of our four performances have been confirmed. The band is set to play at the Air and Space Museum on the Intrepid, and in the Madison Avenue Sculpture Garden. The choir is set to sing in Cathedral of Saint John the Divine. We are still waiting to hear back from the United Nations, but that is pretty normal.
- Many of our tourist destinations have also been confirmed, as well as our hotel.
- We have tickets to see the Philadelphia Orchestra at Carnegie Hall Tuesday night.
Fund Raising:
- We still have lots of Sunglasses for sale. We will be selling at the first couple football games and volleyball games for sure. We will be discussing other selling options. There is a google doc shared with students where they can sign up to help sell.
- We are also working 2 more fall concession stands and 3 concession stands this winter. Sign up for those is also on the google doc.
- Butterbraids are set up with the company. This year they added a Garlic Bread with Marinara Sauce option. We will be selling at the end of September.
