Dear Teachers,
The beloved Salmon Festival is just around the corner. Only one week away, Yippee!

Below are a few reminders for you and your classroom. Please contact Lynann or Susan P. with any last minute questions or concerns.

  *   Don't forget to pack all student lunches into a large box or cooler which is clearly labeled with your name and school name
  *   Any student who needs or wishes to buy lunch may do so at the Entiat Rec Club food booth for only $1.50 (hotdog and a soda)
  *   Please note drop in activities on the map (which is now available on the salmonfest.org website)
     *   encourage chaperones to attend a few drop in activities during times between scheduled activities
     *   The maze takes about 15 min. to complete
     *   Allow 20 min. for snowshoeing activity
  *   Riparian Ramble and Watershed Detectives are located across the bridge, please allow extra time to get all students to those activities so they can start on time.
  *   The Native American Village is not a drop in activity. Scheduled classes are completed by 1:30 at which time you are welcome to visit the village with your class.
  *   Photo release forms: Please know that you will be asked to sign a form authorizing the photographer to take photos of your class.
     *   Please be aware of and know which students are not authorized to have their photos taken and therefore should be exempt.
     *   Your school may have an opt out form to help you determine which students cannot be photographed or you may include the photo release form from the website with each student to gain permission prior to the festival
  *   Gyotaku: Bring Pre-printed Labels for Each Student. Include Student Name and School Name
  *   Visit the following page for other reminders http://www.salmonfest.org/teacher/teacher-instructions/
We are really looking forward to seeing you next week!
