ADVICE
I never travel with kids any where unless they have a completed and signed medical release form. It saved me a major headache several years ago at a Junior Beta Convention. If you travel use one! The form below was adapted from a legal form developed by the National Youth Sports Coaches Association. Believe me, at convention that year, a young student got sick and the hospital was hesitant to do anything until her parents arrived (over 2 hours later). I showed the hospital staff this form and no questions were asked from that point on. She stayed in the hospital for nearly two weeks.
