medical form at this link. It is important that you look over this form
ahead of time. If you answer YES to any of the questions on this form you are
required to have written medical clearance before we can do any water work.
If your answer is NO to all the questions then we do not need written medical

If you answer

and provide you with medical clearance on THIS
FORM.
