As part of our community building, we have planned a field trip to the Berlin School Forest to participate in the Vertical Ventures ropes course. You can read more about it at the Berlin School website that can be accessed here: http://www.berlin.k12.wi.us
The cost to participate will be $10. It normally is $20 but Lumen funds will be used to cover half of the cost. Students will need to bring their own lunch- it will be an all day field trip. In the event of bad weather, we have a rain date of Thursday, September 19.
Attached you will find two permission slips- Berlin Area School District Medical Health History and Emergency Release as well as the Parental/Guardian permission Slip and Waiver of Liability form. These forms were sent home with your child Monday, September 9. You may print and fill them out if need be, otherwise your child has copies. Please send the completed forms back to school with your child as soon as possible.
Your child should dress for weather and outdoor conditions from rain, layering to accommodate both cool and warm temperatures, insects (mosquitoes), etc. An athletic shoe is highly recommended for all ropes course obstacles. No open toe shoes or flip flops are allowed.
We are looking forward to this team building activity- it should be fun as well as serve to strengthen our Lumen community!
