Tomorrow is an EARLY and LONG day!  Make sure you get a very good night’s rest please.

 

Here is tomorrow’s itinerary:

4:45/4:50 AM report to Lockhart.  Please come to the parking lot near the Gym.  You may park there and see your child off.

5:00 depart Lockhart.  Buses must leave at 5am.  We will be unable to wait, so please arrive early.

9:00  Arrive at Carolina Ocean Studies (after a bathroom stop) and board the boat to the island

9:00 – 11:00ish activities on Masonboro Island

12:00 Lunch: subway sandwich, chips, a cookie and bottled water

1:00 NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher

3:00 board buses and head back home

6:00 arrive at Lockhart

 

Students took home a colorful bag and sunglasses today.  They may put the items they wish to bring with them in the bag.  They also brought two gallon sized storage bags.  They need these tomorrow to keep wet items/shells they collect in.  Please don’t forget them.

Suggested items to bring:

SUNSCREEN

A rain jacket if the weather looks dicey

comfortable t-shirt/shorts

A change of clothes/shoes

Some kind of shoes that are ok to get wet.  We will be running through the surf onto the island, and again when we board the boat to leave the island.  After the boat trip we will have an opportunity to change, so students may change out of wet shoes/clothes and into normal shoes at that time.  I highly suggest some sort of aquatic shoes or crocs, but no open toed sandals please.

Perhaps a beach towel to use as a blanket on the bus.

 

We will have some snacks on the bus ride there and back, but PLEASE make sure you eat a good breakfast tomorrow.

 

Get a good night’s sleep.  Tomorrow is going to be fun!
