(High School) Trips

western tour II
ahhhh, yes, one of the best known trips offered to high schoolers across the globe. join us as we take a charter bus across the country stopping along the way to engage in some cool stuff, like the arch, a baseball game, or whitewater rafting--who knows? but i do know that we’ll end up skiing at winterpark and mary jane mountains in colorado. the best thing is we’ll be staying right across the road from the resort and instead of driving back, we’ll be flying! it doesn’t get much better than this. so hurry, i only have 14 spots and they’ll go quickly.
the cost is $499 and the deposit is $200 due february 3rd

parent's corner
parents, don’t think i forgot about you. i’ve got some pretty cool stuff for you guys this year as well. for starters, you can go to our church website, www.redeemerpc.com, or the saywhat?! website, www.saywhatministries.com, and find a section called “the parent link.” (coming soon) once you click on that it’ll have all kinds of awesome info for you, from letting you in on what “blogging” is, to our calendar and when trip and deposits are due.
a word to my homeys:
“too bad when i was a kid there wasn't a guy in our class that everybody called the "cricket boy", because i would have liked to stand up in class and tell everybody, "you can make fun of the cricket boy if you want to, but to me he's just like everybody else." then everybody would leave the cricket boy alone, and i'd invite him over to spend the night at my house, but after about five minutes of that loud chirping i'd have to kick him out. maybe later we could get up a petition to get the cricket family run out of town. bye, cricket boy.” --anonymous
some of you may have a “cricket boy” in your class and that’s okay because both saywhat?! & what’shappenin’ are about two things--being passionate about loving God and being passionate about loving people, even “cricket boys,” or girls.
so come chill with us this year. if you’ve finished the 8th grade then high five to you and plan on coming to saywhat?! which is for high schoolers. If you’re school is named something like, “blah, blah, blah middle school,” that means you’re still in middle school and you’ll come to what’shappenin’? both of which, I’d like to add, are rad. (and yes I did mean to rhyme).
saywhat?! starts back august 22nd @ 7:03 pm.
what’shappenin’ starts back august 26th @ 7:33 pm.
as far as trips go remember two things: your deposit holds your spot, nothing else. squash casserole, jamaican beef patties, nor any dessert items containing peanut butter will hold your spot, even though those are my favorites and you could find yourself on my good side if you were to give me any or all of those items. secondly, deposits are non-refundable and if you cancel your spot a month or sooner to the trip date you will be liable for the entire trip cost or finding a replacement. even your tasty treats can’t get you out of that one!
i can’t wait to hang out with all ya’ll again at saywhat?! and what’shappenin’ this year.
in His peace i’m out,
