Dear Parents/Guardians:

 This year the 8^th grade students will being going to Brookville Park to experience an exciting challenge called Project Adventure. Project Adventure is an outdoor educational program where cooperation and teamwork are stressed through performing various physical activities.

 Please provide your child with disposable lunch, clearly marked with their name (no glass please). No food or drinks can be bought at the Project Adventure site. Children should dress in comfortable clothing. The weather will be chilly; therefore, layers are strongly recommended. Children must wear long pants, long sleeve shirts, and crew length socks. Please keep in mind that we will be visiting a wooded area.
