Rock the Universe Deadlines & Updates

Here are some updates and more details about our upcoming trip.

1. We must know tonight who is going so tickets can be ordered tomorrow.
2. There is a $50 deposit due tonight for each student and chaperon.
3. Permission slips and medical release forms must be on file for each student attending. IF YOU ARE UNCERTAIN IF YOU HAVE A FORM ON FILE, ASK MRS. AMY or MRS. DAWN ASAP!!

Trip details:
We will meet at Bethel at 10:30am on Friday, September 10th. We plan to depart at 11:00am so please be on time. This is earlier than we have left in past years and means that you will have to get out of school early. We want you to get the most out of this trip and avoid the madness that we have incurred the last two years by leaving later in the day. We will return home on Sunday around 5:00pm but will have students call parents when we are about an hour away.

Cost:
We will not know until after all fundraisers are complete, how much the trip will cost the students. A $50 deposit is required by September 1st. We are doing everything possible to keep the costs minimal. Right now we are estimating the cost per person to be about $130 ea. This does not include fundraising monies, so the cost will go down once we collect all fundraising money.

See below for fundraising events!

This cost includes the following:
Concert\Theme park tickets for the weekend
Meals in the park for dinner Friday and Saturday night
Breakfast and Lunch on Saturday and Sunday
Lodging for two nights

If you have any questions, please call us!

Check out www.rocktheuniverse.com for concert times, new rides and speaker schedule.

Fundraising:

****Fundraising monies will only be used towards those students who participate in the fund raisers. The money raised at the breakfast will be divided among those students who show up to work at the breakfast, likewise for the car wash. ****

WaaaHOOOO!! Wednesday Night Youth is back tonight!!

We're so excited to be getting back in the groove this week with CHAOS & K4C!! We have some new K4C Curriculum and CHAOS is going to be doing some brainstorming about what we are going to be doing in the next year!! We are sure it's going to be fun and exciting!!

One thing to note, our hours are changing - we will meet from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm! That means we have more time to share the love of Jesus with all of you!

So, come one, come all - tonight at 6:00 pm!! Don't forget to bring your Bible and invite a friend!
