All potential parents that were interested in going to Ottawa had their names place in a hat for a random draw. As much as I would have liked to have been able to take all interested volunteers, unfortunately we do not have enough space available. The following names were drawn to accompany grade 8 on their Ottawa trip as chaperones: Andrew Jones, John Guptill, Jolene Hampton, Sharon Cossaboom, and Heather Bass. Thank you to every one for their continued support in this endeavor.
