Loons Game at Dow Diamond Field Trip | May 7, 2024 Loons Game at Dow Diamond Field Trip | May 7, 2024

It is almost time for our field trip to Dow Diamond on Tuesday, May 7. A couple of pieces of information before we go:


  • The ballpark will offer concessions and limited retail. They will be accepting cash on School Kids Days only and will lower pricing to an even dollar amount to speed things up at the stands.
  • Please fill out this form if your student will require a school lunch on that date. We know that many students will opt to purchase from the concession stand but we will have free lunch available to students who would like it on that day. You must request a lunch for your student by Friday, May 3. Dow Diamond Lunch Request
  • Students who have opted to not to attend this field trip will have a substitute teacher for the day. If your student is going to stay home from school on this date, they still need to be excused from school just like a normal school day.

DEADLINE FOR PERMISSION SLIP - MAY 3, 2024

We sent out an email on April 18 to all of our FCSD 6th, 7th and 8th grade families to let them know of a fabulous field trip opportunity for our students which comes at absolutely no charge to our district or to our families.


The Saginaw Spirit is hosting this year's Memorial Cup and have invited middle schools in the area to join in a day-long learning experience on May 29, 2024.


Here is the link to the Permission Form. It explains the event, including a part of the program that includes a mental health discussion/presentation. We ask that every parent fill out this form by May 3, 2024 whether your student will be attending or not so that we can plan for our large group. Memorial Cup Field Trip Permission Slip
