High Point Regional High School
Rules and Suggestions for the Whale Watch

1. You will be walking a lot. Dress for comfort and wear comfortable shoes or nice sneakers, preferably not brand new
to avoid blisters.

2. Dress neat and clean. You will be entering public buildings and national monuments. Remember, all pocketbooks
and packages may be checked as you enter. The following will NOT be allowed as dress clothing: halters, worn or
patched jeans, tank tops, half shirts, patched, worn or frayed clothing of any kind. Remember, you are representing your
school and town.

3. Stay together with your group. When a person gets lost, the entire group wastes valuable sightseeing time. Groups
will be accompanied by a chaperone at all times. At no time will a student be allowed to go off on his/her own.

4. Bring along sufficient film and flash bulbs for your camera. They will be more expensive elsewhere. Keep your
camera and film/flash with you, not packed or left in your motel room.

5. Be sure to bring rainwear. We will sightsee rain or shine.

6. Leave large radios and tape players at home. Walkmans will be permitted.

7. Pay very careful attention to all signs and instructions given at the various attractions. Ignorance of or non-
compliance with expected behavior can cause you or your entire group to be expelled from the area.

8. Ask questions. Your guide or driver may have the information you desire.

9. Take advantage of the meals provided on your tour. You will need to eat well to keep up with the hectic pace. All
meals have been paid for, so EAT!

10. USE/POSSESSION OF ALCOHOL OR DRUGS will not be permitted at any time. Use of alcohol/drugs will
cause denial of transportation by the bus company to person or persons involved and will result in the student's or
students' parents being called immediately.  Parents will be responsible for transporting students home. That student or
students will not complete the tour or trip.

11. Smoking by students is not permitted

12. Passengers should remain seated when the coach is in motion for obvious reasons. Your bus is climate controlled.
Windows will not be opened unless instructed by the driver.

13. IF NECESSARY, chaperones will locate themselves throughout the coach to maintain decorum.
