<DIV>1. Students should begin packing tonight. Anything they can't
fit into their carry on luggage can be put in another bag to go onto the
truck. Truck is departing TOMORROW, so bring any items for the truck to
school between 2 and 5 p.m. on Wednesday. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2. Remember to pack an airport friendly dinner that can make it
through security, preferably with no peanuts to help out our students with
allergies. Airport security will toss any liquids or soft/gel like
foods. Pack hard fruits, sandwiches, bagels, crackers but leave the
yogurt, bananas and juice boxes at home. We are not in the big terminal,
so there will be limited food to purchase at the airport in Sacramento.
Kids can also bring an empty water bottle to fill on the other side of security
if they like, or may be able to purchase water or drinks once on the other
side. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3. Lists have been posted at school so kids can find their departure
group if they have forgotten. These were also sent out in emails around
the end of March so check your email box if you can't remember which group your
child is in. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><U>Group 1 meets at DHS for trip check in between 1:30 - 1:45, and
Groups 2 and 3 will meet for check in at DHS between 3 and 3:15 pm. on
THURSDAY.</U></STRONG></DIV>

<DIV>If your child must bring their luggage at the beginning of
school on Thursday, Mr. Lange has said that they can leave it along the
wall of the band room until check-in, then retrieve it before officially
checking in. Remember there will be other groups using the room that
morning so items need to be out of the way, and will not be officially
"secured".</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>4. The weather in Canada continues to change. As of today it
appears to be about half rainy days, half sunny days during our stay.
Always the high temperature will be in the mid 50's - just about our
current temp today, so rain or shine, it will be chilly. Plan
accordingly.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>5. PASSPORTS or birth certificate with picture ID: Your student
should have these with them on THURSDAY. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you to all the parents who have volunteered to help with check in on
Wed and Thursday, driving to and from the airport, at the trip committee
meetings all year, and those brave enough to go on this trip with 126
teenagers! We have one fantastic group of Band Boosters! </DIV>
