As you are continuing final preparations for our departure on Monday, remember to pack several "thank you" cards and a pen. It is an expectation upon departure from your host family on our final day that each student will leave a note, personally expressing gratitude to the host family. These notes are best written sometime on the final evening as the final morning tends to be hectic with departure activities. You can hand the note directly to your host family, or, leave it on the pillow of your made bed when you leave the final morning. Thanks in advance for taking care of this essential element of traveling with a District 99 Honor Band.
