Re: Needs a Preposition?

"Please stay with your group at all times. If you need to take a break (to)(OMIT) for any reason, ask another to chaperone your group while you are gone."

'to' is not a preposition but the use of 'to' in the infinitive: to ask someone to do something.

This sentence requires that it is understood that 'another' means 'another adult/chaperone'.

Alternatively:

"Please stay with your group at all times. If you need to take a break for any reason, ask another chaperone to mind/supervise your group while you are gone."
