SAFETY

1 Each person should carry at least a pint of drinking water. 2 A first-aid kit should be carried in the event that a student trips or falls and gets a cut or scrape. 3 Students should wear long pants, which can prevent or reduce the severity of a cut or scrape. 4 Students should wear sturdy shoes, which increase traction and lessen the chance of slipping or turning an ankle; sandals should not be permitted. 5 If you are going into the Buffalo Caves with your group, each person should have a reliable flashlight; wearing a hat is recommended.

Safety messages throughout the Teachers' Guide are highlighted in RED.
