Spring Travel: Stevenson Instrumental Music Program

---

---

Members of the Stevenson Instrumental Music Department will be traveling to New York City this Spring! For travelers, here is what you need to know:

1. Travel Contract & Requirements (pdf): Every student wishing to go on the NYC trip must complete and return this contract that contains the school academic, behavior, and financial requirements. Place them, when completed, in the envelope on Mr. Sekich's office window.

2. NYC 2019 Trip Package (pdf): contains the itinerary, pricing (as of November), and instructions on how to register for the trip, including date requirements.

3. Bob Rogers Travel Individual Payment System: Log in to monitor and manage your trip finances. You can add alternative methods of payment, make an extra payment, update your credit card info, etc.

4. NYC 2019 Facebook Group (closed group - membership only to travelers and their families)

5. Remind group for trip participants (select one option):
   • rmd.at/19bandtrip (click to add to your iOS or Android device in the Remind app)
   • Text @19bandtrip to 81010 (to receive text messages)

 

A few important items to note:

• No student account payments can be applied towards the first payment. Travelers must register online only with Bob Rogers Travel using a credit card
• Plan on minor adjustments to the itinerary as the trip gets closer. The main activities should stay the same
• FYI: At times, students will be in groups of their fellow students (without an adult chaperone) exploring NYC. It is up to each parent to decide if their student is mature enough to be without direct adult supervision at certain times during the trip
• FYI: There are no on-duty medical professionals in our group. Students are expected to have and take any required medicines on their own
• Family members are welcome to travel with the group. Mr. Sekich will make the final determination of which adults that are on the trip are chaperones
• There are absolutely NO refunds of any kind through Bob Rogers Travel or the Stevenson Band Boosters! Purchasing travel insurance is strongly recommended
