Field trip



Tuesday, October 01, 2013

Hello, writers,

I hope you’re enjoying our short break. The next six-week session of workshops will begin Tuesday, October 22.

 I’ve been working on a couple of newspaper stories. I hope to finish the second one tomorrow. It is about a Northside family who gathers extra fruit from trees and farms and donates it to homeless shelters and churches. 

What are you working on?

At our last workshop, I mentioned a field trip. Here are the details:

On Saturday, October 12, the St. Mary’s Express (a train) will offer four excursions-at 10a.m., 12p.m., 2p.m., and 4p.m. The train ride begins at Theater by the Trax in St. Mary’s and travels into the nearby woods and marshlands.  

Tickets run $17 for adults, $11 for kids 3-12 and free for kids 2 or under. If we can get 10 or more people to go, we can get a discount on our tickets. I thought the 2p.m. excursion might work best because everyone could have their Saturday morning and Saturday evening with a fun event planned in the afternoon.

So, if you are interested in going on the train ride, please send me an e-mail with the following information:

    -Your name and number in your party
    -Time you prefer (10a.m., 12p.m., 2p.m. or 4p.m.)
    -Whether you’d like to carpool from Callahan to St. Mary’s and back

I’ll post discount details soon. Meanwhile, here’s more information on the train and its excursions:

Hope you can go!
