Make sure you are dressed appropriately for the field trip to the Springfield Mosque tomorrow, Friday 2/13. Here is the email confirming the visit, explaining what will happen, and clarifying clothing requirements: "Dear Mr. Beckum, We will be glad to receive your group on Friday. If Possible, come around 12:20 PM. For respect of the religious sanctuary, we suggest that boys and girls wear full dress, no shorts, and the girls should have a head cover, such as scarf or full hat. The boys/men will be seated on the Men's side and girls on the Ladies side, during the service. Service finishes about 1:15 PM. After that all will go to the social hall, for some refreshments and then Imam or some one else will talk to the group / answer questions for Half and hour or so. I hope these brief instructions will be helpful. M. Saleem Bajwa" Also, there should be no shorts, short sleeve shirts, no shirts with writing, and all clothing should be clean.
