Pumpkin Patch Field Trip This Week!

We will be taking an all day field trip to Airlie Hills Farms on Wednesday, October 12th.  Check out www.airliehills.com for some fun information about what's in store for our kids.  We are looking forward to this wonderful field experience!

Just a few reminders to make our field trip extra special:

• Please dress your children in warm, layered clothing.  The projected forecast is for mostly cloudy skies, chance of rain.
• Please have your child wear rubber boots or shoes that they can get dirty in.  They will be walking through a pumpkin patch and with the recent rains, you can bet it's going to be a little muddy.  Please let me know if you do not have shoes for your child and I can assist you. 
• If your child is bringing a lunch from home, please make sure everything in it is DISPOSABLE.  We will not be close to the bus so carrying around lunch boxes, thermoses, etc. will be inconvenient and difficult. 

A few parents have indicated that they would like to chaperone -- THANK YOU!    I will be making calls Monday night to fill you in on some of the details.  I appreciate your willingness to assist in making this an even more special field experience for our kids!
