Thanks to everyone who came to the MODEL UN interest meeting last week—it’s going to be an exciting year! If you are planning to attend CHARMUN at Charlotte Country Day School on Sept. 22 and 23 and have NOT brought Mrs. Shaefer a permission slip, it needs to be turned in by 3pm today or you will not be given a delegate assignment for the conference. Students who have emailed Mrs. Shaefer to say they plan to participate will still be included for now but will be dropped from the list of delegates by Thursday afternoon if they have also not turned in a form signed by a parent!Remember that you can attend CHARMUN without making an official commitment to Model UN… but if you plan to continue attending conferences this year, you need to also turn in a Membership Contract!
