Today's Student Meeting - Take Home Points

Here is what we covered in today's meeting that needs to be followed up on:

- ESTA Visas for USA. 
Details have been emailed to everyone about how to apply for these. Those with valid visas need to send through info to me please.

- Sal's Pizza and Movie Evening - Wednesday February 15
Our first bit of pre-Tour 'team bonding' will take place Wednesday February 15. We are meeting at Sal's New York Style Pizzeria at 5:30pm, then attending a showing of the historical movie Hidden Figures at Hoyts Riccarton. We anticipate that pizza will cost around $10 and the movie $11. Any questions, please contact Andrea Drayton (andrea.d@stmargarets.school.nz).


- Silent Auction and Quiz Night - Wednesday March 15
More team bonding and fund raising will take place on Wednesday March 15 at the Cafe at SMC. Students have been tasked with asking around for goods and vouchers that people they know might wish to donate. Proceeds from this go towards the Tour Fund, which will be used to pay for full group expenses.

- Bike Waiver forms
We have two bike tours lined up for the Tour - one in Washington DC around the National Monuments, the other in San Francisco to the Golden Gate Bridge.
Parents and guardians, please sign these waiver forms (everyone has been given a paper copy) and students, please return to the Humanities' Office WS206.

- Height Chart
The Washington DC Bike Tour people have asked for a list of people's heights so as to queue up the right size bikes. Students, please fill in this document showing your height in cms.

Still to come in later meetings / posts:
- Health, Safety and Security
- Money and Spending Money
- What to Pack / What Not to Pack
- Itinerary planning for NYC and others
