Please note the “What to Bring” list is based on years of experience. The weather is at all times unpredictable.  We want your child to be safe, healthy, and comfortable.  That starts with careful attention to the “What to Bring” list.  Equally as important as “What to Bring” is “What NOT to Bring”.  The repeated pleas to pay attention to the list are based on our own personal experiences dealing with uncomfortable, miserable children who did not pay attention to the “What-to-Bring” list.  If you have any questions, please call Susan Orr at (706-746-7467, ext 249) during the day or (706-746-5278) in the evening.
