France World Cup with Girls Leading Girls- Sol Details
Hello Sol players, families, and coaches!
The draw is final! USA plays in Paris at the Parc des Princes Stadium on 6/16 against Chile!!!
Here's the plan, instead of going through an all-inclusive company that will charge us a lot, we're going to piece meal it and just meet up as a group. That way you can decide if you want to stay with family, at an airbnb, or at the same hotel as us and for how long. Most of you said you wanted to just meet us for the game, so this is the easiest way to do it.
Just a heads up there is a Paris City Airshow from June 17-23, 2019. So Paris during that time will be a bit crowded and things will book up fast!
Costs per person to pay GLG: $150 total by 1/31/19
1. USA game on 6/16/19 in Paris all day includes a 3 game Paris package and GLG shirt to wear.

Those of you that said you could help out- if you have ideas on restaurants that can fit a group of 15-35 for the nights listed in the itinerary, and also if you have ideas on an easy to plan and book site seeing activity we can all do together maybe on 6/16 day before the game or on 6/17 in the morning before people leave Paris.
Fundraising- those of you looking to fundraise I suggest trying to do bake sales, raffle ticket sales, crowdfunding, etc. Unfortunately we're stretched pretty thin so we won't be able to lead the charge for fundraising for this trip so please coordinate together as best you can! This link might help you get started.
Cheers!
