Please describe any special needs, ESL, ELL, or other information we should consider to ensure you have a positive experience:
*
I agree to update student participant and chaperone numbers prior to attending a program as a change in participation may impact programming. I also understand that unforeseen weather conditions, facility maintenance, unexpected outages, or drills may require my field trip to be rescheduled.
*
I understand these conditions and agree to communicate any changes to the Education and Visitor Programs Specialist (616-355-1213) prior to our field trip.
My group is unable to meet these conditions and I agree to discuss our limitations with the Education and Visitor Programs Specialist (616-355-1213) to help determine our tour options.
Safety Acknowledgements - For Plant Tours ONLY
1) I understand that closed toe shoes are required to be worn by all participants and anyone not wearing appropriate footwear will not be allowed on a tour (with the exception of the HEP Visitor Center tour)
2) I understand that facility tours (with the exception of HEP Visitor Center tour) are not ADA accessible.
3) I understand that those who utilize electronic medical devices (such as pacemakers) are not permitted on the plant floor at Holland Energy Park. Electronic devices used for a medical purpose can be particularly sensitive and may malfunction due to electromagnetic field conditions present.
4) I understand that as the tour organizer it is my responsibility to ensure participants are aware of the safety acknowledgments.
