<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT size=3> Victoria, here we come!<BR>We have a
whopping 124 students enrolled for the trip of a lifetime to<BR> Victoria,
BC, from May 16-20, 2008, and the planning committee is busy<BR>ironing out all
of the details for the trip.<BR>We've been able to negotiate some excellent
deals for our group, so the<BR>total cost will be $660 per student, including
all breakfasts and at<BR>least two dinners; plus planes, busses, ferries, hotel,
Butchart<BR>Gardens, and other fun activities.<BR>The exact details can't be
finalized until after our Festival<BR>performance venues are assigned later this
Spring, but we will keep you<BR>posted.<BR>You will receive the second of three
payment requests via e-mail within <BR>the next few days, for an additional $250
payment due by 2/24. The <BR>third and final payment request (another $260
in April) will include an <BR>adjustment reflecting each student's earnings from
band fundraisers. If <BR>you believe that your student will be earning
MORE than $260 in <BR>fundraisers, then you are free to adjust the February
payment accordingly.<BR><BR>A few reminders:<BR>A current passport is
required! If you haven't done so already, please<BR>mail us a
copy.<BR> <BR>Canada is another country; you may pay dearly to use your
cell phone<BR>there. Inquire in advance and beware!<BR><BR><BR>If you have
