To emphasize how informal the application above is, I've used Comic San MS. Please don't worry about it. We just need the information. We are using the honor system for "Duration in Club", but will check the attendance list if something sounds off or suspicious.

We have about 15 open spots for the trip. If more people sign up than there are spots available, then the following factors will be considered in our priority system (in no particular order) - Seniority (Grade), Duration in Club, Commitment to Club. - Hopefully, enough spots will be available to satisfy demand!
