Arizona OR Bust OR NOT

Hello Athletes and Parents (Please share this link with your parents)

For the past 5 years, our track team has made a bus trip to compete over spring break in the Chandler Rotary Track Meet. This year the meet is March 22-23. We would leave school on Wednesday of spring break, then practice on the Thursday. Then the meet is over 2 days Friday March 22nd and Sat March 23rd. The meet ends around 9pm and then we take the bus back overnight and arrive back on Sunday around noon

The problem is: The bus price has gone up to $9700 for a 40 passenger bus. If we have 24 paid athletes that comes out to $400 per person. Hotel will add another $100. Including meals and activities we are looking at $550-$600 expense.

The track program is in a spending freeze with us purchasing a new Pole vault pits, a new tent, and a new set of blocks and cart. If you would like to go on this trip, the cost would need to be covered by each one of you. In the past, this fee has been added to your account and sometimes does not get paid.

THE ONLY WAY: We need a minimum of 24 confirmed athletes with a down payment of $300 before March 10th. I will accept an email from your parents to hold your spot. Please fill out the google form on the Legend Track Web page by THURSDAY of this week. If the response in not at least 24 athletes, then we won't make this trip.

The trip is awesome and fun...and low altitude and usually great weather!! It is well worth it.

WHAT IS PLAN B:
Plan B......I have hotel rooms and will enter some of you that wish to fly. I can rent a van for 8 of you unless we have parents that want to help with transportation

THIS IS ONE OR THE OTHER. We will all take the bus trip and help pay for the bus  If I enter any of you , you will all help pitch in the same amount for the bus. If we can't go on the bus, then I will get a list of those that can fly. You would have to purchase your own flights, and that is not cheap either

PLEASE RESPOND BY THURSDAY JANUARY 17TH IF 'THINK' YOU CAN GO

DON'T SAY YES UNTIL YOU TALK WITH YOUR PARENTS!!

I will be available Wednesday morning during access if you have questions
