I hope this email finds you well and safe! I appreciate your patience with this process. We received our full Wildwood refund earlier this week at the High School. While we still do not know the process of how checks will be issued and sent due to nobody working in the building, I would like to be as proactive as possible. In order to know exactly what each student would like to do with their 2020 Wildwood payments and to have proper documentation, I created the below Google Form. This Google Form will need to be completed by ALL indoor members. We will not be submitting any refunds unless this form is completed. *PLEASE NOTE* if an indoor member DOES NOT fill out this form any payment they have made toward Wildwood will stay in their individual student club account. If you have any questions or concerns please contact Mr. Pfeil. Thank you all and STAY HOME :) FILL OUT THIS FORM
We hope to see you on Sunday, December 15th at 3:00 PM!
We hope to see you there!
