chaperoning a trip in may

[jdorman]

Hello, although I have visited DW many times, I have never chaperoned a trip before. I am a high school business, technology and social studies teacher and I (and our assistant principal) am chaperoning a small group of 10 high school students. I get to go to DW and it's free!

We leave on May 4th and return on the 7th. It will be short but again, I get to go for free.

I don't know where we are staying yet but I know it will be a value resort. I have recently stayed at Pop Century with my wife and kids so I kind of know what to expect from the values.

I know there will be a number of expectations and obligations as a chaperone but with the kids that are going I know that we will have a great time. The kids will be free during the day at the park we're visiting which means that I will be free too. With two small daughters, almost 2 and 5, I have not been free to roam the parks on my own the last several visits. My only real regret is going to be the inability to eat at Boma. I love their buffet!!!!!!

This is my first attempt at this but as I learn more about my trip and begin planning my days, I hope some of you may find it entertaining.

NOW, is there anyone who can explain to me how to put in a signature and countdown counter?

Is the html showing up following my post or is it only when I preview? How do I get rid of it?

Thanks.

I just went to www.tickerfactory.com and followed the directions. At the end, it gives the option of where you want to paste it. Choose the bbCode, which is used for message boards. The one I have on right now is from Mickey Path, and again, I just followed the directions. If you use Mickey Path, just hit create twice at the end. The frist time you hit create, it gives you a preview, and the 2nd time, it gives you the link. Hope this helps.
