Possible Field Trip?

 
I have been working with Home Depot trying to set up a workshop for next week. However, I can not get a definite answer from them.  I am suppose to hear back from them no later than tomorrow.  When I do,  I will send out an email for drivers.  I am so sorry that I am vague. Every year they host our kid’s workshop, but are always slow responding. Thanks for your understanding! It is a great field trip.
