Important Information for First Field Trip!

Thank you to everyone who is volunteering so much time! Please see your flyers for directions to the McCarthy farm.

• Volunteers for Cakes: Qualkinbush, Schwartzmiller, Durgin. Please remember to make the cake per our discussion last Monday.
• In case of Cancellation: Please check the blog Monday morning before leaving to make sure there has not been a cancellation due to weather.
• Dress Code: Please remember that even on co-op field trips, the dress code applies. So long as the goal of Christian modesty is met as outlined in the Codes of Conduct, there should be no worries about your attire. Plan to get VERY dirty!
