Still working on the November meet-up!

I am still working on the November meet-up!  There are quiet a few logistical issues...one being for the dairy tour they only take 10 kids on a tour at a time and each tour last 15 minutes.  So since we have close to 50 signed up...there will be a lot of waiting.  I have already worked out with the tour operator about staggering start times and will be e-mailing everyone who has signed up as of yesterday (9/11/12).  (see announcements in previous posts)  This e-mail will be send during the first week of October.

I am looking for someone that would like to head up a second day for this same type of field trip....dairy tour and tractor museum.  Maybe the Wednesday prior? Or really any other day.  I believe the tractor museum is closed on Mondays.  I will be able to field e-mails from everyone and can provide a list of those attending a few days prior so you know who will be attending.  Let me know if you have an interest in being in charge for a second tour day. 

Until another day is scheduled....I am going to stop taking rsvp's.  I didn't anticipate doing this....but I am going to put a temporary hold on it right now until I can work a few things out.

Another reason why I am going to stop taking rsvp's is because I will be traveling from Monday, September 17-September 30.  I will have limited access to e-mail.  So when I get back and settled, hopefully I will have a volunteer to head up an alternate date and we can start taking reservations for this new date.  Thank you in advance for understanding.  If you do e-mail me...and you don't hear back...you know why.  I am not ignoring you:)

For those of you who toured Memorial Stadium...I hope you enjoyed it as much as my family did.   I was not able to meet everyone.  :( If I didn't get a chance to introduce myself...hopefully we can meet-up at Roca in October or even the Christmas party in December!!

Updates on field trips....

As of 9/10-- Memorial Stadium--  can not take any more reservations.  She was a little nervous when I called and said we were over by a few.  Sorry!

Tractor Museum & Dairy Tour-- as of right now I am going to stop taking reservations for this.  We are allowed to have between 10-20 per tour at these locations because apparently they are small.  I have never been, but that is what they told me over the phone.  We have 40 people signed up right now.  I am going to call to set up a second tour and will have to take volunteers to switch times.  I honestly didn't think these field trips would be so popular and hate cutting it off....

I will be seeking volunteers to be the go to person for the second tour....so let me know if you are interested...I will know more details when I call.  Hoping to just stagger the start times a bit and keep the same day.

If you were not able to get in on this tour and would like to arrange your own tour...please let me know and I can forward you the information and I will send people to you for sign-up.  Again...I did not anticipate the excitement over these field trips and I apologize if you didn't get in on this activity.

Memorial Stadium Update!

I have officially stopped taking RSVP's to the Memorial Stadium tour!  I will e-mail everyone who signed up with more details soon!

**Update September 8-- we have met our max of 90 people-- if you would like more information about scheduling a tour please let me know-- **
