[quote=Anonymous]15:18 here. So some are eager to go, and have the funds to do so. Some are eager to go, but don't have the funds. And a not-insignificant group don't want anything to do with the trip. The problem, as I see it, is that fund raising efforts will be focused on one or two parents in each grade in the "eager to go, don't have funds" group. The two other groups have no need for fund raising. So invariably, that person gets burned out. Also, with all the classes simultaneously fund raising, they can't all go to the same well -- parents get burned out of weekly bake sales, book sales, etc. So I don't see the fund-raising working out, UNLESS someone has an in at a major corporation or other entity that has money to burn on this trip.
