We will leave the school parking lot promptly at 5:00 PM and plan to return by 9:00 PM.
The cost of the trip is $56 per student and includes admission and bus transportation.
Please register below and complete two required forms: the ADW Permission form and the Markoff’s Waiver —a copy of the confirmation email for the MHF Waiver should be given to your student's homeroom teacher.
This fun event is open to 70 students.
Please ensure your student eats something beforehand, as the available food and drink selections at the site are limited, though they may bring money to purchase items if they wish.
(If parents need help affording this trip, they should contact Mrs. Mirkow directly.)

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
What is Cardinals on the Move?
Cardinals on the Move is a series of voluntary afternoon, evening, and weekend trips. These trips are recreational and cultural outings designed to give our students healthy opportunities to socialize and take advantage of the area that we live in.
Who is involved in Cardinals on the Move?
Only LFS middle school students can participate in these trips. The school arranges these trips and staff and parents chaperone these outings. We ask that parents pay the costs associated with these trips; and we work to keep the costs low with grants, donations, and group discounts.
Why are we doing this?
These trips will give us the opportunity to strengthen our community and to enjoy each other in a different way than we do in the classroom. We are excited about getting off our screens, hanging out with some new friends, and exploring our city together.
How does it work?
We intend to plan 3 to 5 Cardinals on the Move trips per year. Students may choose to go on one trip or all of the trips. Students sign up for each trip separately. The space for some of these trips will be limited. The school will arrange for buses. Once we know how many students are participating, Mrs. Mirkow will arrange for chaperones.
Where will we go?
Our plans are to try to take advantage of the wonderful area we live in. We intend to go to sports events, theater events, museums, seasonal activities, etc. Not every trip will appeal to every student, but we will try to include a fun trip for everyone over the course of the year.
