Middle School Chicago Trip 2010

It's finally arrived and all our hard work fundraising this year has paid off! We are off to Chicago on Friday, May 14th. All students need to arrive to school between 7:00 and 7:15 a.m. We will leave St. Joan of Arc at 7:30. Students will need to dress for the weather -- jeans, comfortable shoes, sweatshirts, etc. Keep in mind that Chicago is always colder than Indianapolis, and we will be on the water. Students should bring the following other items:

• back pack or purse to carry around the city
• camera
• umbrella or rain jacket?
• snacks for the bus ride (however, only water to drink on the bus)
• pillow (if wanted)

**Please be sure that the backpack / purse is comfortable to wear all day long! We will not keep personal belongings on the bus.

Here is our itinerary for the trip:

7:30 a.m. Depart Indy

10:30 a.m. Arrive in Chicago

10:45 Walk to Adler Planetarium and tour facility
