Join us for a thrilling day at Six Flags Great America! We will be exploring the theme park only.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Full Itinerary:<\/p>\n

8:00 AM: Depart the Brigade (we will travel via 12-passenger vans)
\nApprox: 10:30 AM: Arrive at Six Flags
\n*Participants ages 14 and older will be able to break off into their own groups. Those under age 14 will be in a group with a designated chaperone.
\nLunch & dinner:<\/strong> Please have your child bring money to purchase lunch and dinner from the concessions. Six Flags only accepts card payments, but they do have a cash-to-card kiosk that the kids can use for conversion. A chaperone can hang on to the money and place it in a locked locker if preferred. If you would like a chaperone to hang on to the money, please put it in a Ziplock bag with the child’s name on it.
\nApprox. 8:00 PM: Depart Six Flags
\nApprox. 8:30 PM: Stop at McDonald’s (not<\/strong> included in cost)
\nApprox. 11 PM: Return to Brigade<\/p>\n

Please note that times are approximate. When traveling in large groups with unpredictable traffic patterns, we cannot guarantee a definite arrival time. We will send a text update when we leave McDonald’s.<\/p>\n

Parent Information:<\/strong> To enhance safety and accountability in a large park setting, students will receive an AirTag during the trip. This device allows leaders to monitor general location within the park if a student becomes separated from the group. All devices will be distributed and collected by staff the same day.<\/p>\n

Please note:<\/strong> This trip is designed for participants who enjoy roller coasters and thrill rides. If high-speed, high-height attractions aren\u2019t your thing, this may not be the best fit for you!<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"six-flags-great-america","image":{"url":"https:\/\/bgbrigade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/OIP-7.webp","id":5047,"extension":"webp","width":474,"height":266,"filesize":26008,"sizes":{"medium":{"width":350,"height":196,"mime-type":"image\/webp","filesize":20296,"url":"https:\/\/bgbrigade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/OIP-7-350x196.webp"},"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/webp","filesize":8758,"url":"https:\/\/bgbrigade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/OIP-7-150x150.webp"},"small":{"width":175,"height":98,"mime-type":"image\/webp","filesize":6564,"url":"https:\/\/bgbrigade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/OIP-7-175x98.webp"}}},"all_day":false,"start_date":"2026-06-10 08:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"06","day":"10","hour":"08","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2026-06-10 23:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"06","day":"10","hour":"23","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2026-06-10 13:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"06","day":"10","hour":"13","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2026-06-11 04:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"06","day":"11","hour":"04","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"America\/Chicago","timezone_abbr":"CDT","cost":"$120","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"$","currency_code":"USD","currency_position":"prefix","values":["120"]},"website":"https:\/\/bgbrigade.com\/programs\/discover-activities\/","show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"Discover Activities","slug":"discover-activities","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":3,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":40,"filter":"raw","id":3,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/bgbrigade.com\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/3","collection":"https:\/\/bgbrigade.com\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[],"venue":[],"organizer":[{"id":558,"author":"7","status":"publish","date":"2024-04-25 14:54:12","date_utc":"0000-00-00 00:00:00","modified":"2024-04-25 14:54:12","modified_utc":"0000-00-00 00:00:00","url":"https:\/\/bgbrigade.com\/organizer\/monicca-winters\/","organizer":"Monicca Winters","slug":"monicca-winters","phone":"920-725-3983 (ext 330)","email":"mwinters@bgbrigade.com","json_ld":{"@type":"Person","name":"Monicca Winters","description":"","url":"","telephone":"920-725-3983 (ext 330)","email":"mwinters@bgbrigade.com","sameAs":""},"global_id":"bgbrigade.com?id=558","global_id_lineage":["bgbrigade.com?id=558"]}],"custom_fields":{"_ecp_custom_2":{"label":"Grade","value":"5th-12th"}},"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Six Flags Great America","description":"<p>Join us for a thrilling day at Six Flags Great America!
