The trip is NOT required in order to participate in the Rebel Regiment. It is optional. You

marching band and choose not to participate in
this trip
The total cost of the trip is $950.
Parents are welcome to go as
chaperones, but must pay $1050 (Based
on Double occupancy instead of Quads).
Bus space is limited; therefore, spots are
available on a first come first serve basis.
Number of spots will depend on how
many students sign up to go. Chaperones
must pass a SLED and DSS background
check as well as be on a district approved
list. SLED/DSS forms will be sent home in
August. DSS/SLED forms should be received no later than the week of August
31st - September 4th. All money and for
students and chaperones must be received
before making a room assignment in November. Due to purchasing tickets this far
in advance, it is necessary for the first deposit to be received on time.
Thank you for your help and cooperation.
We are very excited about our trip and
believe it will be a wonderful learning experience.
