Family Field Trips

Eagle's Nest 2008-2009 Family Field Trips

The following field trip dates are firm unless otherwise canceled for lack of participation or the venue cancels, in which case I will notify you. Every effort has been made to book events that your family will enjoy! I do not book field trips when it is indicated that adult language will be used. I will post any new opportunities through the E-groups.

bullet

If ages are posted, these are suggestions but whole families are welcome to any performance. Children under 2 are free if they sit in a parents lap for any performance.

bullet

Please mark your calendars with the deadline dates and show dates. Payment deadlines are based on the vendors schedule for payments due.

bullet

If paying for your reservations/tickets by check, write in the memo the performance you are paying for. Make checks payable to Eagle’s Nest. Do not forget to include your completed payment slip.

bullet

If payment is not received by the deadline date you will lose your space, NO exceptions!

bullet

If you cancel or give your reservation away to another family please notify Lynne Sommer.

bullet

Tickets are issued for Philips Arena and Fox Theater performances; all others are reservations, no tickets. If the reservations are full, you will go on a waiting list. I sometimes have success fulfilling the list.

bullet

If you are a family that participates in the Eagle’s Nest Co-ops on Thursday at Crossroads Church you may sign up and pay there. There will be sign up sheets with an envelope attached for your payment otherwise call or E-mail me with the name of the performance and the number that will be attending and send the payment in the mail. Limited seating and first come (and pay) first served. I will do my best to send reminders through the Eagle’s Nest E-groups.

 

Please show up on time to the performances. In many cases our group cannot check in until the whole group is assembled.

Any questions, comments, or payments, send to:

Lynne Sommer
