Two Week Warning!

Hey Everybody!

Our departure is nearing!  I am posting to ask for some support in an effort to bring some school supplies to Nicaragua with our group.  We will pool whatever school supplies we can and pack them into an empty (or near empty?) checked bag.  Here is a list of needed items from Amped's Director of operations, Sarah Wormann:

- pencils

- pencil sharpeners (not electric)

- 1 subject notebooks

- printer paper/white paper

- colored pencils/crayons

- erasers

"These are the main things we'll need, but if you bring down any other odds and ends in addition to this list that would be great too!"

 

Please do your best to bring any items you can, even if they are older or used.  When you see where and who these supplies go to, you'll be happy that you did!

Reminder: Please bring $70 with you for the airport transits when we depart!

If you have any questions, please contact me!

Transport Costs!

Hey folks!

Summer is in full swing!!  Our trip is a month away....

Unfortunately, after researching several airport transportation options, the cheapest fare I could book was actually $35 per person each direction, $70 total.  This is $20 more for total than I predicted.

Alternatives would be parents carpooling with vans, etc. or just individually arranging transportation.  As a reminder, our flight leaves Boston's Logan Airport at 5:45am on Wednesday 8/13 and returns to Logan at 11:06pm on Thursday 8/21.

Checks can be made out to "Amped For Education."  I will accept cash or check at the time of departure 8/13.  It would likely be 1:00am-ish, as we would need to arrive at the airport a safe 2 hours before our flight.  We would depart from the Frontier parking lot.

I apologize for the skewed numbers!  Please contact me with any questions or comments!
