To take part in any Explorer Day, all adult guardians must sign a consent form available on the day.
Please arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled start time to ensure enough time for waiver signing and passport stamping. Remember to bring your passport—fill it out in advance at home to make it easier for the Leaders to stamp it.

Other items that might be useful are: magnifying glass, binoculars, sketch book and pencil, camera and field guides.
Starting times are firm out of courtesy to the Leader of the day. We regret that we cannot wait for those who are late.
