During June of 2011, the Concert Choir will embark on an 8-day tour of Northern California and part of Southern Oregon. The choir will depart the evening of June 10th and return on June 18th. The tour is mandatory for all members of the Concert Choir and will cost $400 ($550 for chaperones who stay in hotels instead of with host families).
CHAPERONES
We are seeking out parents who would be willing to travel with the choir as chaperones on the tour. The cost for chaperones who are staying in hotels is $550 (chaperones who elect to stay with host families will be $400). If you would like to be a chaperone, please contact Mr. Swenson as soon as possible. WE HAVE A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF SPOTS.
Students who are between the age of 9-11 at the time of the tour will need to be accompanied by a designated guardian. This can be either an older sibling, a parent, or another designated adult.
