Cancellations must be made in writing (US Mail or email) no later than July 11, 2023. Spots for summer camp are limited. If your child will not be attending, we can give the available spot to a student on the waitlist.
Consent to Medical Care and Treatment of a Minor
As part of a special program at Alabama Wildlife Center, your minor child or ward is scheduled to be a guest of the facility during the week of July 18 – July 22, 2023. Please read the accompanying information about the program in which your child or ward will be participating.
Emergencies may arise through unanticipated causes such as accidents and the like. Since time and/or distance can make it difficult to contact you for consent to medical care and treatment in an emergency, it will be necessary for you to give permission to authorize such care or treatment without first contacting you. If medical care or treatment for conditions less than an emergency is indicated, efforts will be made to contact you before such care or treatment
Video and Photography:
I agree to allow Alabama Wildlife Center to video and photograph my child during scheduled program activities for promotional purposes (brochures, newspaper articles, program website, etc).
