Upcoming Trip to Catalina Island

Jacinda Bringas, Columnist|September 7, 2013

As fall approaches, so does Horizon Honors’ annual trip to Catalina Island. With the first meeting out of the way, payments are already being made to Mr. Dieterle. There are 45 spots available and with eager and excited upperclassmen and underclassmen, they are bound to fill up quickly.

The Catalina trip is a three day stay at the Catalina Marine Institute where students experience marine life first hand and participate in labs and activities centered around the marine life and ecosystem on Catalina Island.

Though it may be expensive for some students, tax credit is available for the trip, making it more affordable.

This trip is a great way to bond with other students and nurture an appreciation for nature and the life around us. In the past years, Catalina has been a major success and students expect this year’s trip to be the same.
