Our town potter and presenter for tomorrow’s field trip has come down with the flu and will be unable to give his presentation. We hope he feels better soon!

Alternate trip: God is good and the daffodil farm is able to open unexpectedly tomorrow - so we are redirecting there at 10:00 am! The flowers are $0.25 per stem, or you may come out and just enjoy the beauty and friends. This also opens up our time to anyone, including those who were unable to register.

Family Education

• While we hope that you enjoy a fun, educational, and memorable field trip to this program, please remember that our school group programs are an extension of each family's class day. We ask our hosts to aim for educational quality.
• For this set of programs, siblings may need to stay with a parent outdoors due to space limitations and safety restrictions. Please prepare for this possibility by making plans with another parent for chaperoning purposes. There is a nearby park in walking distance that may offer a wonderful alternative for younger siblings.
• Space limitations will prohibit strollers inside the studio but you may have them for outdoor activity and walking to the nearby park.
• The program will cater to younger children first and end with information targeted for upper level ages but we ask all students to arrive at the same time to avoid distractions.
• This is not a hands on event - it is a visit. We appreciate Mr. Preston for giving us his time and educating us!
