Today is the final day to turn in your Florida trip deposit. This is the only way to reserve a seat on the bus. An announcement will be made regarding the final payment schedule in the coming days.

We are extending the turn-in date of the down payment for the Florida trip to Oct 30th for two reasons: 1.) To clarify that the down payment IS refundable if the number of attendees is too low causing the last payment to be very high and 2.) We will make a lot of decisions about the trip based on this first down payment. We will have a better picture of the final cost of the trip. When we check our numbers on Oct 30th , if the trip goes over our projected costs, we will cancel the trip and your down payment will be returned. By the time the second payment is due, those going on the trip will be locked-in and money will not be returned. In honor of "Back to the Future" day, enjoy! https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=share&v=jnFl1q0IYTA Don't panic. There is nothing new on the calendar but it is such a busy and unusual week that I thought I'd put out a reminder.
