As a member of the PTA at my youngsters school, some of our responsibilities are fundraising and coordination class trips.
When my youngsters were small and in elementary and even middle school, this was a much easier task.
Now, they are in High School and the trips are to larger places and, in most cases, several days long. My friend and I are charged with the task of located places that are fun, educational, safe, and reasonably priced. It is not simple to put all four things together and it takes almost half the year just to decide where my pal and I will be going. My friend and I ended up choosing a beach neighborhood that wasn’t too far from several historical plantations down south. This way my pal and I could use a couple of days doing tours, but, the youngsters could have downtime on the beach too. My friend and I needed to ensure that the accommodations were centrally located and they had sufficient space and that it had all the amenities like Heating plus A/C. The Senior trip takes place around the end of June each year and the weather will be easily summerlike during that time, then air conditioning will be a must at the end of a morning of touring or at the beach. Before selecting the hotel each of us went online to study the reviews to make sure that it was a good match for our group. My friend and I want the trip each year to be memorable and in a good way. If my pal and I option a place that is not comfortable, for whatever reason, it could ruin those final year memories for so many students. This year is even more important as one of my own youngsters are going too.
