The bus will leave at 9:00 am and will return to our campus at approximately 2:00 pm. The cost is $10 (cash only) which covers the cost of the bus. You will need to bring a lunch or money to buy lunch in the college cafeteria. Please see Mrs. Hettema in the Counseling Office to pick up the registration and permission slips. Registration is limited to 50 students and forms will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis with no exceptions. For more information, see Mrs. Devoe in the Counseling Office.
