Greek Trip

September 8, 2006

Dear Fellow Greek Traveller,

On Tuesday, September 12, we will meet from 6:00p to 7:00p in the Athens Room (in the basement of the Commons). Among the items to be discussed will be obtaining passports, our tentative itinerary, and things you can do now to prepare for the trip. As a special bonus, there will be a brief slide show highlighting some of the sites on our trip. If for some reason you cannot attend, please let me know in advance. In addition, you should pay the Business Office your initial deposit of $700 by September 15. All checks should be made payable to Cornell College, with the memo "account #100-6509-72374, Greece trip."

As for the payment schedule, this is how it will work:

Initial deposit $700 due September 15, 2006

This is to secure your place and to indicate your commitment to make the trip. It may also be necessary to reserve hotels.

Down payment $1000 due December 1, 2006

This is necessary to secure the best possible price for airfare, and to reserve ground transportation in Greece.

Final Payment $1600 due March 1, 2007

These amounts are tentative. We may have to pre-pay hotel rooms in full to get the best possible price. If that is the case, then the December 1 payment may be larger and the last payment will be smaller. There will be absolutely no refunds from 60 days prior to departure. There may be refunds of some or all your payment before this time.

I look forward to seeing you Tuesday.

Best wishes,
