One thing needs to happen in order to really get everything rolling. We need you to communicate your travel plans to us. So go online and log in to your profile. On the My Mobilization Tab you’ll see a Travel Page. Right there you can enter all your information…
Have you not made plans yet? Let me share some helpful tips with you…
First, we need cars. There are quite a few elements of camp that are made even more excellent if you can drive yourselves places. Ideally, we would like enough cars so that every single person has a ride. Could you drive to camp? Please do!!! Could you borrow the church van to drive to camp? Even better! Let Mom use your sweet ride and you bring the minivan? Awesome. If you are driving, you need to arrive at the training camp BETWEEN 4 P.M. AND 5 P.M.
Next, if you are flying. We will meet you in the Chattanooga airport in the afternoon. Your flight MUST arrive BEFORE 3PM EST. After your flight lands, go pick up your baggage, and we will meet you there.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are flying into the United States from another country, DO NOT PURCHASE A ONE-WAY TICKET!!! Even though you will be flying out of the United States with your team, Homeland Security will not approve of your entrance and may not let you in. Therefore, you MUST buy a round trip ticket!
Last, you have to tell us your plans. We have a checklist at the airport. We have a checklist at the training camp. We need to know which list you belong on. You get your name on the checklist by filling out the Travel section of your Mobilization Tab. If you do not fill this out, we are going to start calling you. In order to make plans for airport pickups and transportation, we have to know this information. Please make your plans and fill in the information.
Questions? No problem. Give us a call in the office and we’ll help you out.
