Looking at the calendar this morning I realized that our hospital tour is next Thursday- and I hadn't sent home permission slips or booked a bus yet! Yikes! This short week is really throwing me off my game. So Team Awesome went home with permission slips this afternoon and they are due back by this Wednesday please. Parent helpers are needed and there will be room on the bus for anyone brave enough to join us.
The hospital offers only a limited amount of tours per year for classes and its on a first come basis. Last June I was able to book our tour for this spring and it will be my first time getting a good look around Royal Inland Hospital. The hospital sent some guidelines for myself and parents who will be joining us.
