In order to ensure proper care in
case of an emergency on the hike we are requesting that the wards provide 2
copies of the Medical Release Form for each girl. One for the
girl to carry in her pack, and one for her leader
that is going with her on the hike.
If there is anything written in the
"Medical Information" section please write this on the wrist of the
young women before the hike. (If you would like to ensure that it doesn't
wear-off you could use liquid bandage )
