Events-Activities-Field Trips

Dear Friends,

I am happily organizing group field trips to the Milwaukee Ballet. Some of you might be familiar that Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Ballet has become a treasured tradition within our homeschool community. In fact, if you've been to this version of the Nutcracker in years past, this year starts a "reimagined" version for the Milwaukee Ballet! Please read to the end for all of the details if your family is interested in joining us.

Thursday, December 7th

Doors open at 10:30am, with performance starting at 11am

Marcus Performing Arts Center

929 N. Water St. Milwaukee, WI 53202

Adult Ticket - $16.35 (includes tax)

Youth Ticket - $11.08 (includes tax)

Payment is due to me no later than Monday, September 11th. I have to turn around and pay the ballet later that week.

* PayPal (F&F Please) to RebeccaHardin4@gmail.com.

* Cash or Check is also acceptable, preferably in person because we've had issues with our mail recently & want to leave no room for missing money.

Please comment on THIS POST how many adult and youth tickets you would like. If we know each other outside of RAHS, I treasure your friendship, but then you probably know that my organizational skills need 1 place to look for everyone's communication.

ALL ages require a ticket.

The intended age for this student matinee is around 5 and above. I am not putting age limits on our group, but please understand that we are sitting through a wonderful live performance & leaving the auditorium may result in not being able to reenter until intermission or the end of the performance.

Please give yourself time and plan for parking.

I will give you proof of tickets closer to the event. Have that ready to show ushers if they ask.

Commenting HERE saves your tickets in order received. Once payment is made, sales are final. IF something changes for your family, you are able to sell or gift your tickets to someone else, but please communicate that with me. I currently have 150 tickets reserved for both groups my family is a part of. If there is more demand than tickets, I will reach out to the ballet & will communicate accordingly. IF there are any remaining tickets, I will release them back to the ballet at my time of payment.

Full transparency: Because the ballet sets things up as if we're a traditional school class, they only require a down payment the week of Sep. 11th & remaining balance later. I simply don't have the capacity to follow up with everyone for 2 payments, especially if someone were to change their mind or didn't follow through. However, if someone would truly love to go & needs a little wiggle room with timing, please talk with me.

Looking forward to enjoying special moments such as these with you this year!

Sincerely,

Rebecca Hardin
