February Field Trip Info

Our next field trip is on February 8th. The plan is to go to Timberline Lodge for an action packed day. Part one of the day will involve a guided tour of Timberline Lodge. Timberline was built as part of the Works Progress Administration. We will at that time be studying the Depression and the New Deal, making this an idea time to talk about CCC and WPA projects in Oregon. Part two of the day will be focused on life long sports and PE. Yes, we'll be skiing. While activity fees will cover student costs, I will need parents to purchase their own rentals and lift pass if they wish to ski while there.

I need the following information from each parent so I can make the correct reservations. Please respond as soon as possible so I can get our paperwork in.

 

1. Are you available to chaperone?

 

1b. Are you comfortable driving?

 

1c. If so, how many students can you take?

2. If yes, are you an experienced skier?

3. If you would like to chaperone, do you need rental skis?

4. Has your child ever been skiing?

5. If yes, do they have their own skis?

6. Is your child an advanced skier or would they still benefit from the group lesson?

7. If your child is an advanced skier, are you comfortable with them going up the main ski lift if they are supervised as a group by a parent that is an advanced skier?

8. Do you have extra ski pants or jackets that you are willing to loan to students that do not have them?

You can email me with these answers or you can send me a note in their planner.

Thank you!

Mrs. Adams
