Field Trip Information
Our field trip to the
Jacksonville Icemen is this Tuesday, November 14th. Although
we always try to be organized and thorough, the Icemen organization appears to
be new in the realm of hosting field trips and it has been challenging to
pinpoint what our ‘free lunch’ will consist of during the game. As of
Thursday, we have been advised that students will have a voucher for a hot dog
and drink and that they are still working with a vendor about providing a piece
of fruit with the lunch as well. With that said, we would like to outline
the following options for our students:
Students are welcome
to pack a bag lunch and bring it to the game, especially if due to possible
food allergies or religious beliefs.
Students may pack an
additional snack item, such as a bag of chips, to eat with the food that is
provided using the voucher at the game.
Students may bring
up to $5.00 to spend at the concession when redeeming their voucher. This
may or may not be a viable option since the Icemen have not outlined what is
available or at what cost. Also, we will not allow students to make
repeated trips to the concession stands for safety reasons at such a large,
public venue.
We are trying to be as transparent
as possible with the information they have given us. We will also discuss
this information with students at school tomorrow. Students may wear
their school shirt to the game, or the Icemen team colors are navy blue and
gray. It will probably be chilly, so please help us to ensure students
are dressed appropriately so that they can enjoy the game!
