If you are a diabetic or have other special needs, please be sure to bring all the necessary items. We have made arrangements with a nearby hospital for medical assistance, if needed, in case of sickness or injury. 

If there are any changes in your medical status between the time you complete your medical history and your arrival date at the WLC, it is your responsibility to send documentation from your physician providing your diagnosis and any activity restrictions that may be required or recommended for you. If required, send this information via a mail system with tracking like Federal Express.
