Due to capacity, we will cap each session at 30 students. Registration is required. You will receive a packet with what to expect one week prior to the field trip. Registration will close one week before each session, or until they fill up. There is space on the form if you are planning on signing up for more than one child.
A parent or guardian must accompany their student on the field trip, please do not drop off your child. You are welcome to join the field trip activities or hang out in a designated area with other parents/guardians.
