BOOOsterfest:
BOOOsterfest will now take place on
Saturday, October 30th from 11am - 1pm!
We all know that holding any activity outdoors in October in Chicago comes with it's own risks, and although we are planning the best we can for inclement weather, there is only so much that a handful of canopies can do for such a large activity such as BOOOsterfest.  We have decided to postpone the festivities because of harsh weather conditions until the next morning, Saturday the 30th, from 11am-1pm. Setup will start at 9am!

BOOOsterfest:
BOOOsterfest ahora pasará el
Sábado, el 30 de octubre de 11 a 1 por la tarde.
Todos sabemos que realizar cualquier actividad al aire libre en octubre en Chicago conlleva sus propios riesgos, y aunque estamos planeando lo mejor que podamos para las inclemencias del tiempo, hay mucho que un puñado de toldos puede hacer para una actividad tan grande como BOOOsterfest. Hemos decidido posponer las festividades debido a las duras condiciones climáticas hasta la mañana siguiente, sábado el 30, de 11 a 1 . ¡La configuración comenzará a las 9 am!

Parade & BOOOsterfest Weather Contingency Plan
As of right now, the outdoor parade for all of our PK - 4th Graders and BOOOsterfest are still a go on Friday! We are aware that there is a high chance of rain all afternoon into the evening.

We will make the final decision by Thursday evening (tonight!) for all Halloween Festivities and will notify families via email and social media. 

If we need to change our original plans,
the weather contingency plan will be as follows:

Parade:
Should weather prevent an outdoor parade, the parade will be changed to an indoor parade. Students will be able to parade throughout the hallways of Bateman. Parents will only be able to view the parade via Facebook Live.

BOOOsterfest:
We all know that holding any activity outdoors in October in Chicago comes with it's own risks, and although we are planning the best we can for inclement weather, there is only so much that a handful of canopies can do for such a large activity such as BOOOsterfest.  We will be looking at the weather closely and will make a decision whether or not to change the date of BOOOsterfest by Thursday night.   We have decided that if we do indeed need to postpone the festivities because of harsh weather conditions we will hold it the next morning, Saturday the 30th, from 11am-1pm. Setup would start at 9am!


***The parade will be available virtually via Facebook Live for those unable to attend in person!***
