World Youth Day 2014
 
We are so glad that you will be joining us for World Youth Day 2014 at Six Flags Over Texas.  It looks like it could be a beautiful day.  A few things you and your son/daughter will need to know:
 
1) We will begin checking in, in the Youth Room at 8:00 a.m.
    A)   teens will be given the name and contact information of the adult that they MUST check in
           with  during their  time at WYD
    B)  teens will be given a new awesome YM t-shirts.  Please make sure they are prepared to put
          it on!!! 
2) We recommend that they dress in layers, even though the weather man says it will be a
     beautiful day - you never know.
3) If your son/daughter likes to carry a back pack they need to be aware that Six Flags has a new
    about carrying bags up to the platform where you get on and off some of the rides.  They either
    need to dress and carry stuff in a way that they will not need a bag or plan on renting a locker at
    the front of the park to leave bags in for the day.
4) Everyone will need to be sure to bring enough money to eat at the park and they will be taking
    up a collection at offertory during Mass so it would be nice if they would be sure to have at least
    $1 to contribute.
5) We will meet for Mass at 3:45 p.m. in the Music Mill Amphitheater.  Being late could result in
    not being able to attend this awesome event in the future so please make sure your teen knows
    they MUST BE ON TIME!!!  Plus, they won?t want to miss Mike Patin
6) Teens are expected to stay through the entire Mass.
7) We will meet at the front of the park NO LATER THAN 9:00 P.M.  Again, being late can result in
    not being allowed to return in the future.  To avoid confusion we will show them the exact
    location before they are dismissed to ride rides when we get to Six Flags.
8) Participants should return to the Youth Room at around 10p.m.  We will ask the teens to phone
    home as soon as we get to the highway so that parents can arrive at the Youth Room about the
    same time they do.
 
We hope this answers any questions you may have about the day.  See you THIS Sunday morning at 8a.m.!
