Health Suggestions for the Youth Tour
We want you to have a fun, healthy, and safe time during Youth Tour. Please follow these tips:
Walking
- You will be walking a lot – many miles a day in some cases.
- Wear old, worn, comfortable shoes!
- Consult the chart (see box) for suggested types of shoes to bring.
- Pack any braces, support or joint wraps that you use, just in case.
Eye Care
- If you wear contacts, bring wetting solutions - air quality and allergens can irritate.
- Bring a spare pair of glasses in case of loss.
- Bring sunglasses!
Meals
- Remember to eat fruits, and vegetables, and salads, not junk food or fast foods. (You'll need healthful foods for energy!)
Medications
- Please indicate all medicines that you must take on the health forms provided by your cooperative.
- Bring all prescription medicines in their original (labeled) containers.
- Bring all regular medications as well as occasional usage medications (such as migraine medicine).
- Drug and grocery stores are nearby for over-the-counter needs.
