LES VOYAGEURS
FRANCE 2017 UPDATE 4/24/17
55 days and counting!
Mark your calendars! Our required pre-tour meeting will be held at 7:00 pm on Tuesday, May 23rd. I have done what I could to avoid concerts, award nights, sports activities, and any other event that may be a conflict. One parent should plan to attend. We will finalize plans for departure, review rules and procedures, look at the final forms, tips, carrying money, safety, and other final topics. Those students who wish will be able to stay for a few packing tips. Much of this information will also be shared with you by e-mail in the next few weeks.
4 THINGS TO DO NOW!
1) Check your Explorica account. You have been getting notices from Explorica. Be sure that the name that you have used matches your passport exactly. If you have not done this, do it quickly. If you need to do it later, there will be a charge to have your ticket changed.
2) If I have spoken to you about missing insurance, take care of this quickly. Nearly all of you have signed up for one of the plans and I have told you if you are not. As we said at the initial meeting, I strongly encourage the travel policy and it must be signed-up for before your final payment.
Again, that basic plan covers:
EXPLORICA’S TRAVEL PROTECTION PLAN
Our standard travel protection plan covers you for the following events:
- A traveler’s injury, sickness, or death of a family member
- Theft of passport or visas
- Flight cancellations due to strike or bad weather
- Loss of luggage and personal effects
- Trip cancellation or trip interruption due to covered reasons such as a covered sickness, illness, injury or death
- Trip cancellation or trip interruption due to terrorist acts, as defined.
Please attend to this so that we are all covered.
3) Make sure that at least one parent (or more if they wish) has received this and confirm this with me at school!
4) Be sure that your fundraising money is in! Once everything is finalized and the tour fees are all paid, I will be able to start the process that leads to distributing the checks to students. I would love to hand them out in mid to late May. However, I need to have all funds in, the paperwork complete, and be able to turn in the final trip payment information to the office. Then, it goes through a few steps that are out of my hands. So, please do not delay. Also, if anyone can help out with the last Seroogy's bars, please let me know.
Where will we be on DAY 7? St Malo (interactive tour), dinner at a creperie, and a visit to the Mt. St. Michel. Have a peek.
Remember- Our Required Tour Meeting
One parent must attend along with the student.
We will review rules and procedures and cover everything that we need to ensure a fabulous tour!
