FAQ

1) How do I find out how much money is in my child's fund raising account?
   Our band treasurer will be sending out a report soon with the amounts. The balance would be funds raised
    from the Dance-a-Thon and the Fanny May sale.

2) Does the Friday performance include time at Six Flags?
    No. We will only be at Six Flags on Saturday.

3) Do you need any parent chaperons for the Friday trip?
    We will wait to see what chaperoning help we will need. All parents/family are encouraged to join us in
    Gurnee for the performance.

4) Is this an overnight trip?
    No. We will return home Friday night at approximately 10:30 pm and meet at Lakeview early Saturday morning.
    We will leave the park Saturday after it closes, and be back at approximately 11:00 pm.

5) Are 6th graders able to go on the trip to Six Flags?
    Yes! They are part of the performances and they are part of the fun and awards ceremony, too.
