Just a gentle reminder that the fund raisers benefit everyone, so everyone should be helping. Now, of course we all have conflicting schedules, and some people JUST joined the class, so of course not every one can help each time. I have noticed a couple of people who are not contributing. Let me say here, that to me, this is a sign that you won’t help on the trip. Let me say here that that means I will not give you permission to register for the trip. It’s easy - we all work together for the benefit of all. We have more fund-raising opportunities where you can amend the situation. I can guarantee you that no one will get away with not helping with camp chores - and I am very, very patient with what I describe as practiced incompetence. If you choose to get out of work during the trip, by doing it poorly such that someone else just takes over and does it, you will do it again and again until you complete the tasks competently. We will tolerate no horse hockey manipulation of the group. Trust me on this. Yo Mama Ain’t Coming Along on THIS Trip.
Secondly, I am a tad worried about the tent situation in the sense that I need to make it clear here that we have to share tents, and I know that there are couples in the group….I also know you are adults, more than likely sexually active, and responsible. But, you must also be considerate on this trip. How do I say that an ultimate inconsiderate act would be to have sex in the tents or the hotel rooms while others are in there with you….We will try to be as communicative as possible through out the trip and as considerate….So, there will be places where two of you, that is, any and all couples, may sleep in the same tent without others; however, there will be places where our space is so freaking limited we can only have X number of tents and we’ll buddy up. Our first camp site is remote, to say the least, and if you can find space for your tent, we can have as many as we want up. Likely our second spot also. The big parks, like Grand Canyon and Yellowstone may be very different stories.
I am reserving 7 hotel rooms and I have to set this up so that the rooms are all male and all female. By the end of the trip, we will all get to know each other very, very well, so some, well, there are just certain things I should not commit to print or say out loud. There are certain times when I am going to make a comment to you, ask you to not ask questions about what I said, and we will do our very best to realize that sometimes reading between the lines is a necessity. If that is vague, it should be.
