Who to contact:  Scott Converse; sconverse@bus.wisc.edu or 884-7749

Additional Details: 

·         Each youth (including guests) will need to fill out a permission/waiver form that includes a parent or guardian signature.  Permission forms are available on the church web site at http://www.edgertonunitedmethodist.org/policies-and-forms or by picking one up in the church lobby.

·         We are in need of chaperones to drive and attend the event.  If you are over 21, have a valid drivers license and are willing to fill out a chaperone waiver form at http://www.edgertonunitedmethodist.org/policies-and-forms , we would love to have you come with us.  Contact Scott Converse if interested.

·         Food at the amusement park is EXTREMELY expensive (slice of pizza and a soda - $13, cup of ice cream $7) and not included with the ticket we’ll be providing them.  We will be making sandwiches prior to leaving, but you may want to send your youth with a little more spending money than normal.

·         We expect to return to the church at 1:30am.  However depending on traffic conditions this time is flexible.  You may want to have your youth call during the return trip to give you a firmer time of arrival if you plan on picking them up at the church.  There will be dozens of cell phones around even if your youth doesn't have one.
