World Youth Day at Six Flags is THIS SUNDAY!!!
There will be no High School Ministry
Current weather reports say that it could be a rainy Sunday morning. World Youth Day will go on Rain or Shine! Tickets are non-refundable! The only way this incredible event will be cancelled is if Six Flags Over Texas closes due to the weather. We look forward to seeing everyone Sunday morning at 8:00 a.m.
Good information to have before the day begins:
1) We will begin checking in, in the Youth Room at 8:00 a.m.
A) teens will be given the name of the adult that they MUST check in with during their time at WYD
B) teens will be given a new awesome YM t-shirt. Please make sure they are prepared to put it on!!!
2) The latest weather report says it will be around 80 degrees and sunny most of the day. Please help your teen to be prepared to sit in the sun during Mass!
3) If your son/daughter likes to carry a back pack they need to be aware that Six Flags has a policy about carrying bags up to the platform where you get on and off certain 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. They can also rent a lock at those rides for $1.00 each time.
4) Everyone will need to be sure to bring enough money to eat at the park. 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 the entertainment.
5) Teens are expected to stay through the entire Mass. They will also 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.
6) We will meet at the front of the park NO LATER THAN 8:15 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.
7) Participants should return to the Youth Room at around 9p.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.
I hope this answers any questions you may have about the day. Please go over this information with your teens before arriving at the Youth Room on Sunday morning.
