CHOIR TRIP 2008-2009 SCHOOL YEAR

Dear students and parents,

It is not too late to sign up for the Spring Trip to Orlando, Florida. The trip includes the following for all participants, students and chaperones:

  • Deluxe Coach Transportation

  • 4 Nights Deluxe Accommodations in Orlando

  • 1 Lunch Cash Back Allotment $10
  • Universal Studios or Islands of Adventure : Counter Service Meal Coupon
  • Universal Studios or Islands of Adventure: 1-Day Pass
  • 4 Professional Tour Directors
  • Taxes and Gratuities
We are scheduled to leave the afternoon of Friday, March 13 and return early on Thursday, March 19, 2009. More details of which parks we will visit will be announced at a later date pending performance times.

The cost for students is $920 and parent/chaperones is $892. The attached individual registration form breaks down the payment schedule beginning with a $50 non-refundable deposit and the first payment of $110 due by Sept. 5 and ending with a February 1, 2009 final payment. ANY PARENT WHO WANTS TO BE A CHAPERONE MAY AS LONG AS THEY SIGN UP BY THE DEADLINE.

The contract is between you and the company. The direct billing is made available with any credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover) OR check card with Visa/MasterCard logo. We are not encouraging anyone to pay by check because that will have to be made to the school and it may delay payment to the company.

In order to secure a spot, I will need the attached form returned to the Fine Arts office by June 10, 2008 with credit card information. You may mail it to the following address:

Georgetown HS Fine Arts
2211 North Austin Avenue
Georgetown, TX 78626

OR drop off in person at the Fine Arts office at GHS - there is a grey drop box outside the door.

Just for your information, this trip is open to all performing arts students at GHS (band, choir, orchestra, dance team, colorguard, and theater students) who will be participating in the Disney Performing Arts workshops/performances. We need to have at least 400 paying participants to keep this price fixed.

The staff is very excited to offer this opportunity. If there are any questions, please contact Mr. Aguillon at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it . I will be making a trip to the Orlando area this month to meet with the Disney folks as well as to visit hotels, etc. and will share that information with the staff when I return.
