What to Know

Sunscreen is advised as you will be outside for several hours.  Hats or visors are good to wear to keep the sun off your face.

What to bring: Towel, change of dry clothes, dry pair of shoes, glasses straps if you wear glasses or want to wear sunglasses, water bottle (filled), any medications you are prescribed that you may need (epi pen etc.).

What NOT to bring: Valuables such as jewelry, electronics or other items you would not want to lose or damage in the water.
