    Lunches are the responsibility of the students. Please try to pack peanut free lunches as some students may be severely allergic to nuts. Students may go to Science North to purchase a lunch with a written note from their parents or guardian.
    Sailing School Staff should be notified the morning of the first day of any medical issues participants may have. These issues will be kept confidential.
