Detroit Zoo Field Trip Reminders

It is almost time for our field trip to the Detroit Zoo on Friday!  As of now it looks like the weather is going to be beautiful!

Please remember to send a spring jacket for your child that they could take off when it warms up later in the morning.  It is also VERY important that you send your child with a sack/bagged lunch - they do not need to bring their backpacks, red folders, homework folders, etc.  They cannot purchase lunch at school or the zoo.  By sending it in a disposable bag we will be able to easily throw it out when they are done.  This will make it easier for the chaperone's to carry in their backpack.  Children should wear their class jog-a-thon or class color t-shirt - BLUE.  We should be returning to Bemis at about 2:00.  In the past many children have been picked up by their families at this time, since it is such a long day for the kiddos with all the walking around they do.  Otherwise we will be watching a movie until the end of the school day.  We are looking forward to having a great day at the zoo!
