Kite Day 5-20-2013 - REVISED
| 
IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ Kite Day – REVISED
Monday, May 20th
Although Belmar had assured us they would be ready for us on Monday, May 20th, we are concerned about the safety of our students entering and accessing the beach in Belmar. Due to that fact, we have decided to relocate KITE DAY to Allaire State Park in Farmingdale.
It was obviously short notice, and they were very accommodating to us today when we spoke with them. There is a large open field behind Allaire Church and they have secured that location for us. The benefit to Allaire State Park is that there are permanent public restrooms as well as port-a-potties at this location. There are four port-a-potties right at the field we will be on, and the permanent restrooms are at the main entrance, just a short walk from the fields.
Due to the short notice though, we are unable to access any of the other areas in Allaire State Park as they are not sufficiently staffed for us. We cannot go on any tours, visit the Village Area, or the General Store. Please understand they are not trying to be difficult, they are trying to supply us with a venue where we can fly kites and picnic with our children.
Allaire State Park has a carry in/carry out policy, and teachers will have garbage bags with them, as well as disposable gloves for discarding the student’s trash.
Please pack a towel or small blanket for your child to picnic on. Please pack a brown bag lunch for your child – no glass bottles. We are still planning to arrive at Allaire between 10-10:15 and depart there no later than 2:00 to return to SVS. Parents may park their vehicles in the main parking lot after entering the park.
Thank You for out Gift Auction Success
