According to organizers, the schedule for graduates includes the following: 

Following Friday’s graduation ceremony at the football field, seniors will change from graduation attire into more comfortable clothes.  Parents are responsible for picking up graduation attire, which will also include cap and gown. 

Buses will be on-site ready for students to board, with everyone ready to go by 9:00 p.m.  

The first stop on the schedule for the night of fun is Track No. 4 in Branson, where a catered meal of pulled pork, chips, fruit, and cookies will be served.  During their stay at Track No. 4, students will have access to attraction areas such as the Go-Karts, Heavy Metal Highrise, bumper boats, and bumper cars. 

The Skycoaster Ferris Wheel and arcade are available to students for an additional fee, but are not included in the package.
