1) Parental Consent Form (one for each minor enrolled in program) 2) Wilderness River Adventures Acknowledgement of Risk Form (one for EVERY participant) The Parental Consent Forms are found in your "My Account" page on the Road Scholar website (www.roadscholar.org). We CANNOT accept these forms onsite at the beginning of the program for any children. These forms must be submitted in advance. If possible, our office would prefer to receive these forms no later than 3 weeks prior to the program start date. For each minor enrolled in the program, this form must be completed by the child’s legal guardian. The Wilderness River Adventures form is attached at the end of this information packet and is required for ALL participants, including adults. We would very much appreciate it if you could complete this form for each participant and submit them to our office in advance of the program start date. Having this form completed and submitted in advance will save everyone a great deal of time and confusion at Registration and Orientation on the first evening of the program. Forms can be mailed to: Northern Arizona University Road Scholar PO Box 5604 Flagstaff, AZ 86011-5604 OR emailed to: roadscholaroperations@nau.edu (Note: Please be sure to reference your program # and start date in the subject line!)

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.
