Lunch after ASF Field Trip

After the field trip we will have lunch at Chick-Fil-A at East Chase in Montgomery. The children will be able to order a 4 count ($3.50) or 6 count ($4.00) chicken nugget meal with a choice of fries, fruit, or applesauce. Drink choices will be white milk, chocolate milk, or apple juice.  I sent home a form today to fill out and return.  The money for this is due on Monday, February 9th.
