5Dear Parents,

We are going to Myers’ Pumpkin Patch! Our field trip is scheduled for Thursday, October 24. The children will be participating in several Fall Harvest activities. We will be leaving the school at 10:50 a.m. and returning around 2:00 p.m. We will be taking our lunches and having a picnic at the Pumpkin Patch. Whether your child brings a lunch from home or the cafeteria, he or she will need to bring a drink. The cost of the trip is $7.50 (cash only). The permission slip and money need to be returned by Friday, October18 (not any exceptions). If you choose to pay online, you must pay by October 11. Please make sure you return the lunch note that is attached by October 18.

Since we will not be visiting the souvenir shop, the children will not need to bring any extra money.

Parents may go as chaperones. Chaperones will have to provide their own transportation to Myer’s Pumpkin Patch. Chaperones will be expected to assist their child’s teacher in any way needed. Chaperones that want to go on the hayride need to be prepared to pay $2.00 before boarding the wagon. Due to the limited amount of space in the learning stations, preschoolers are not permitted on this trip. If you wish to be a chaperone, please mark the attached sheet and sign your name.

We are looking forward to another great learning experience as we explore the Pumpkin Patch.

(Please return the attached page along with your child’s permission slip and money not any later than Friday, October18. If you choose to order an adult lunch, please send $3:55 by October 18..
