  • Books to read in spare time.

Please use discretion because there is always the risk of damage, theft, or loss. If there are any doubts, please leave these items at home.

  • Cameras are allowed at all events. Please use them responsibly. Last year one got lost on the hike.

All food and snacks will be provided on the trip, however, those wishing to buy pop etc. can bring money and buy from the machines. There is also a gift shop at the WAC Dam if anyone wants to buy something there.

The weather forecast shows a mix of sun and cloud so we need to be ready for anything. Please call me at home at 785-8424, at the school at 787-0417 or email kpeterson@prn.bc.ca if you have additional questions.

Thanks,

Mr. Peterson
