Future NeenahSix Flags Great America Brigade Trip
This outing to Six Flags Great America focuses entirely on enjoying the theme park’s rides and attractions, with transportation planned in 12-passenger vans and travel to and from the Brigade. Participants ages 14 and older may explore in their own groups, while those under 14 will remain with a designated chaperone. For added safety in a large park setting, each student will be issued an AirTag so leaders can view general location if someone becomes separated, and all devices will be distributed and collected the same day. Lunch and dinner are purchased at park concessions. The park accepts card payments only, and a cash-to-card kiosk is available for conversion. Families who prefer a chaperone to manage spending money can send it in a Ziplock bag labeled with the child’s name, and funds can be stored in a locked locker. The plan includes travel to the park, time to experience the attractions, a stop at McDonald’s on the return trip that is included in the cost, and arrival back at the Brigade. Timelines are approximate due to group travel and traffic, and a text update will be sent after leaving McDonald’s. This trip is best suited to those who enjoy roller coasters and other high-thrill rides.
