Update on Paideia Tournament

Men and Women players,

Congratulations on earning bids to Paideia. We will a keep you all up to date on transportation planning and information at this website. Thanks to Ann Shaw for her work on getting the plane to take us to WARM Atlanta. Now for the details.

Coaches will publish a full list of players eligible to play. Both teams will fly together from MPLS to Atlanta leaving here at 4:50 PM on Friday and returning late Sunday night (12:38 am). The flight is with AirTran and is non-stop to Atlanta. We will rent vans at the airport and players and coaches will billet Friday and Saturday night with Paideia families. Parents will rent at a hotel near by. The full cost including flight, ground transport, tournament fees will be approximately $375.00. The final cost is hard to estimate as yet, but we will keep you all up to date on the final bill.

Players, your job is to get a full and unequivocal 'Yes' from your parents as soon as possible, we'll have less than 2 weeks to insert your names into the group reservation. Ann has reserved 36 spots -- we can decrease that number, but if we increase it the extra spots are not guaranteed for the same price.

Players ask your parents if they would like to come and see two of the best teams in the country take on the East coast players. Parents' costs will be the plane fare $240.00, plus food, ground transportation and hotel.
Have interested parents call Ann Shaw or Mike Schock for details.

For those MapQuest fans, Paideia School is just outside Atlanta, about 15 miles from the airport.
