in your school and your program and do not litter.
MEDICAL FORMS
On the first day of camp all students will be given a medical form
which needs to be filled out and signed by a parent or guardian. This form must
be returned the FOLLOWING DAY. It is very important and these forms are
received by Mr. Brown and filled out accurately. This is for the safety of
yourself and your fellow students. Any prescription medication must be given to
Mr. Brown at the beginning of camp and will be distributed when needed by each
individual. Any prior or current medical conditions must be known by the
