SCHOOL PILGRIMAGE INFO

Teachers: Take your students on a pilgrimage back in time to the 
medieval world of Geoffrey Chaucer. On their Pilgrimage your students 
will get to meet and interact with characters such as the Knight, the 
Wife of Bath or the Prioress from Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Our 
special school Pilgrimage to Chaucer's England will be open to grade 
levels 1 - 6 from 9:00AM to 2:00PM on Monday March 31, 2008 and for 
grade levels 7 -12 on Tuesday April 1, 2008 . To maintain a safe 
environment for children, the Pilgrimage to Chaucer's England will 
not be open to the general public. Admission is $6.00 per person. 
Orders paid by March 20th, 2008 will receive 1 free chaperone ticket 
for every 10 paid tickets. If you can not make our scheduled 
Pilgrimage dates, you are welcome to join us on one of the weekend 
days of the Acadiana Medieval Faire for the same discounted price.
