Underwater and Outer Space: Chattanooga With Your Grandchild

After you enroll, we’ll ask you to provide or update your personal information and preferences, which includes your health information, lodging and meal preferences for your program.

Waivers will be sent to the grandchildren for at least one of the parents to sign. Participants under 18 will need a waiver signed by a parent or guardian (waivers must be completed and signed in order to participate in the Tennessee Aquarium overnight.)

United States citizens don’t need a visa for any of the countries you’ll be visiting. Non-U.S. citizens should refer to their country's requirements to ensure they have the necessary documentation for travel.

A signed Parental Consent form is required for this program. The form must be signed by both parent(s)/legal guardian(s) of the child participating in the program and returned to the program provider prior to the start of the program. You will receive the form as part of your program information packet. You will also be able to access the form through your online account.
