I love field trips. Love coming up with concepts, love going on them, love talking to kids about them after. I even love the planning of them - figuring out what will be fun to do, why it's valuable, how to make it all work.
You know what I hate? GETTING KIDS TO RETURN THE DAMN PERMISSION SLIPS.
This should not be that hard! Of course, "should" is the operative word there...
Grrrrrrr.

I love those things about field trips too. Unfortunately, I've been reduced to bribing students to get their forms signed and returned sometimes as quickly as the next day. It's a cheap ploy...but it works!
