• NCSY is a drug-free, smoke-free, weapon-free, alcohol-free and bully-free environment. None of these items or actions are permitted at our events and if any of these are found on or done by any participant it is grounds for immediate expulsion from our programs at the parents’ expense.

• No teen participant may drive another participant or themselves during the Regional.
• No teen may attend the Shabbaton without a waiver filled out and signed by a legal guardian.
• MEDICAL REMINDER: If you take prescription medication. The medication name, amount of medication, how it administered and the reason you are taking the medication MUST be clearly written on the waiver. If you allow your teen to self-medicate then you MUST indicate that on the waiver and initial that line. In addition, please indicate on the waiver if your child has special food needs or allergies.
