Terri, if they have 2000 attendees, we will need about 20 scopes, I don't think 
we should do it. Sam

It is 94% hispanic, and 47% of them are classified as "english learners" which 
means they do not speak english well and 89% of the parents do not speak 
english. 100% of the pupils are on the free lunch program.

Star Tours Group Members,


I just got a request from a teacher who we have done events for in the past. 
She was at Orangewood School but has moved South to a school that is just below 
I-10 and West of I-17.


The address is :





3843 W Roosevelt St  Phoenix, Arizona 85009

the school is Alta E. Butler Elementary

What I want to know is, do we have anyone interested in doing this school event 
($25/scope + food & drink),
or do we know something about this school that would limit our availability.. 
such as mostly Spanish speaking people, in which case I would will ask the 
school for a translator to be at the event for us, or maybe too low
of an income area, that they may not be careful with our equipment. Any input? 
Should I book it?
And can you do it on Friday Nov 15?

Orange wood also asked us to return on Thursday Nov 14. I  will get that one 
set up as they took good care of us last year. I"d love to do that one again. 
And right now,
we have a MOM"s on that date, but we can cancel / 
move that MOM to another day if needed. Nov 14.

So, for this email, just let me know if you can do this
event on the 15th and if you are willing to. I realize it is
quite a drive down just below I-10. If 2 scopes say they can do it, I will book 
it, otherwise I will find an excuse
not to do it. 

Let me know your input on this, before I make it happen.
I will give you until Friday to respond. Noon Friday is the deadline. Thanks 
for your input.
Have a super day!
Terri, Event Coordinator for PAS
