11th grade camping update and we need more chaperones please!

So the verdict is in!  We got a GREAT price for the trip. For $35.00 you get:

*   camp fee
*   pavilion for dinner & games
*   guided tour–including gold panning.
*   food-including pizza lunch on Tuesday when we get back.

26 (of ~40) 11th graders have committed to go.
If you have not yet done so, please go to the link below and fill out the form with your intentions to either go or not go.  On Wednesday volunteers will be food shopping for whoever we know about at that time.  You will still be able to go but I can’t promise food–you’ll have to bring your own!

Permission slips and money may be dropped off at Steller any day this week.

We have one–count them-ONE committed overnight chaperone.
That plus Jason and I is enough for 26 students but we need MORE–at least 3. This is a super fun overnight trip for parents AND students. Please consider chaperoning.
