What are the expectations to make teachers go on field trips?

I was going to have gone into more detail about my situation. I teach a class once a week at a local high school, and they want me to go on a field trip that I'm not thrilled about. That's not the point of this post.

Here are some better questions:

To what extent are teachers expected to go on field trips?

If teachers don't want to go on a field trip, how can they handle the situation?

Are teachers ever pressured into going? How can this be avoided?

A teacher who doesn't want to go can theoretically say "Find another chaperone or cancel the whole darn trip. Either way, count me out!" That is probably not the best attitude though.
