Attached is our itinerary for our 8th GRADE Carowinds trip on April 23rd. Students and parent chaperones will meet in the cafeteria at 7am. We will be going over expectations for the day before we leave. Students will need to bring money (Debit card) for food in the park and anything else they would like to purchase. We perform at 8:50am in the South Pointe HS auditorium. It is a free concert for all.
All chaperones will need to have their license scanned in the front office sometime this week.
Group lists will be finalized by the end of this week. You will also have a detailed Carowinds video message from me by the end of this week.
Also, Carowinds is going cashless. Students will need a prepaid debit card for food etc.. They do have stations in the park where you can convert cash into a debit card for free. Here is more information about Carowinds policys.
