Thank you East Coast Family 2015!
Thank you to the parents of our East Coasters for allowing your child to have this experience. It was a pleasure to take this group of kids to the east coast. I would especially like to thank our parent chaperones this year, Mrs. Bolek, Mr. Connors, and Mrs. Scully for all their help...it was truly appreciated. I hope the kids enjoyed themselves and made memories that will last a lifetime. On a logistical note, I have our commemorative group photos from Times Square and would like to encourage the kids to stop by D-6 to pick theirs up. Enjoy the rest of the school year and good luck to all of you as you embark on your high school career.

Holy Cow...Tomorrow is the Day!!
Well, folks we are coming down to the wire. Just a couple of quick things for kids and parents:
Wear your blue USA shirt tomorrow. We will be wearing this shirt for over 24 hours before we arrive at our first hotel. For this reason, I STRONGLY urge that you take a shower within the hour before you arrive at Rio. We’ll all be grateful that everyone is fresh and clean when we have to share an airplane and a bus together.
Do a final packing check. Batteries and chargers are the most frequently forgotten-at-home accessories on this trip. Go through your whole packing list and check and double check. I already have mine laid out on “The Table.” :-)
Let’s keep in touch. Once the trip begins, I will no longer be sending out these regular broadcast e-mails to parents (you may get just one or two, or maybe not). Instead, I will be posting regular updates on the blog, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Check from work, check from home, my goal is to post a trip update every 4-6 hours (hopefully more than that). These links are great to share with family and friends (grandmas love my facebook page!). Just a reminder that there are a number of ways to follow the trip:

Check the weather lately? If you've been watching the weather, you’ll see some very typical East Coast weather for early spring: cold and rain. Be prepared for this weather. I strongly suggest a small umbrella, caps and gloves. Weather forecasts can change, too, so be prepared for warmer weather just in case.
Layer.
Additionally, there is no need to "dress up" for out Broadway play. The weather might be cold and wet, plus we'll be touring all day before we make our way to the show. Something nice but practical for walking around Manhattan would be best.
I will probably send one final message before we leave, but if not, I will see you tomorrow in the Rio Norte front parking lot by 6:45 p.m.! Remember to park under the solar panels and NOT in the red zone. Additionally, I will be weighing bags before they get on the bus, so be sure to be under 45 lbs. Thanks so much!
