PLEASE READ ALLERGY INFO POSTED BELOW!
**ALLERGY INFO (health notice)
- Sheila and perhaps others in the room suffer from environmental and food allergies.
- If you would please refrain from wearing cologne, perfume, and scented body products on the day that we meet, that would be incredibly helpful.
- Scented laundry detergents and dryer sheets are also very problematic. If you use these items it would be helpful that what you wear to class is not newly washed so that the scents would have faded.
- Also, if anyone was recently ill, please don't attend unless you are no longer contagious. Out of an abundance of caution, if you still have the sniffles or are coughing, please be prepared to wear a mask. If you don't have one, we will provide you with one. Thank you for your kind attention to these matters.
- AND, if any of you have allergies that we should be aware of... peanut etc. Please reach out to Josh and let him know so that we can get the word out and make this a safe space for all of us!
