SIX FLAGS TRIP — MAY 18, 2024

This year, the West Music Department will be traveling to Six Flags Great America on Saturday, May 18, 2024. This will be an optional trip for any student in the music department. 

The only criteria to attend is not missing performances. All performances must be attended or made up by the trip date. Costs will be determined in the spring, but are looking to be around $90. We will also need some parent chaperones, Hope to see you there!
