We understand that some of you will be out of town. If you are legitimately unable to make the June 14th training, there will be a one time, last chance make-up meeting in early July. We hope everyone will have a chance to attend and participate in this fun activity!
Medical Forms: In addition to the church medical release forms, all rappelling participants will need to fill out the following Medical Forms A and B, and bring them to the training meeting. Copies of insurance cards are not needed.
Rappelling equipment needed: Just a heads up, I received the following information from our instructor...
"I require each participant, adult or youth, to wear leather work gloves while on rappel. This is a safety measure, to prevent rope burn leading to instinctively letting go of the rope. We'll discuss this in June, but you might mention to the girls to bring a pair with them to camp, if they already have them. They need to fit reasonably well. They can be a bit big, but not so big that they become floppy and risk getting caught in the rappel device or falling off."
Please call Molly Collings with any questions!!
