American Museum of Natural History Trip is Wednesday, YES....THIS WEDNESDAY

Hey all- I am asking everyone to send in a permission letter tomorrow. Yes, a hand written letter that allows your child to go by train to the Museum of Natural History on Wednesday 12/4. There is a $7 fee for the IMAX movie, "Penguins." I know that we've had many trips recently that were $7 and $9, but that will be it for a while. Thank you, in advance. CB
