Please read closely
My son/daughter,
, has my permission to attend the Country Day
School 9th grade field trip to Punta Mona and Pacuare River Rafting from February 24-26, 2016 coordinated
by Adventures Under the Sun. I have reviewed the field trip policies and the recommended packing list and I
will go over these with my son or daughter and assure that they are prepared for the program. I am aware of
the trip cancelation policies and refunds for cancelations. If my son/daughter should require any emergency
medical attention while on the trip, I understand that I am to reimburse the individual or representative that
covered the incured costs if any. I have been informed that CDS school teachers will be chaperoning the trip;
if my son or daughter seriously violates any school or field trip rules or policies during the trip, it is my
responsibility to pick up my child from the program at my own expense.
I hereby allow the trip coordinators and organizers to take and utilize non-incriminating photographs of my
son/daughter for trip updates and future marketing efforts.
