Catalina Island 7th Grade ESM Field Trip 2023
3 days, 2 nights Outdoor Education program
For the past 8 years, Friends of King has been able to partner with our 7th grade teachers in offering students the opportunity to participate in a 3-day, 2-night outdoor camp program on Catalina Island through the Catalina Environmental Leadership Program (CELP). This year we are excited to announce that we would like our 7th grade ESM students to also experience CELP on Catalina Island (CELP.net). Some of the highlights include snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, sustainable gardening, and campfire! This year's trip is scheduled to take place from Wednesday, March 1st--Friday, March 3rd.
Friends of King is committed to providing support for the enrichment learning opportunities for all students, regardless of a family's ability to pay. The total cost of the trip, including transportation (bus and boat), food, lodging and equipment for activities is $400 per student. The success of this trip is based on raising enough funds to cover the cost of the trip for all students who want to attend. If you are unable to contribute the full amount, please enter the contribution you are able to make in the "enter your own amount" box and click continue.

You can donate online or bring cash/check payable to Friends of King and give it to Mr. Cantatore. You can contribute all at once, or break it up into payments. The deadline for final contribution is Friday, January 13th.
