When do we need to decide by?
Decision by November 30th
Minimum # of travelers = 5
Decisions…
EF charges $300+ if some people sign-up, but we don’t
have my magic number of 5
To prevent people from being charged that $300+, I’d
ask that we make a decision by Nov. 30th. I can then
communicate to everyone that yes – there is a trip,
please sign-up or no – there isn’t.
