Important Information for Group Leaders and Participants
Notes for Group Leaders:
What We Need From You...
- Waivers – Make sure all participant waivers are signed (by a parent/legal guardian if under 18). A completed and signed waiver is required for participation.
- Questionnaires – Questionnaires will be sent via email to help us design a course for your group. Please return the answers at least 2 weeks prior to your course.
- Participant numbers - Contact us if your numbers have changed.
Providing for Participants...
- Supervision - Secure supervision. Each group of 8 to 15 must have one adult stay with the group during the entire program who is responsible for group conduct and discipline. The facilitator may dismiss the group if behavior threatens safety.
- Dividing into groups – Prior to your arrival, divide participants and their signed waivers into groups of 15.
Information for Drivers...
- Directions - give a map to your driver.
- Buses must park outside the parking lot. Parking is limited and there is not enough space for buses to turn around.
Restrooms – our restroom facility is a port-o-potty, please note that there is no running water available.
Come Prepared!
Programs at the Lincoln Marsh Natural Area are held entirely outdoors. There is no indoor facility.
