Additional Guidelines and Recommendations

  • If a prescheduled event is arranged, inform visitors prior to arrival that children need clothing suitable for the weather conditions.
  • Watch visitors for exposed skin and signs of frostbite such as numbness and white or grayish-yellow skin areas.
  • Know the signs of hypothermia, and immediately move anyone exhibiting these signs to a heated area and contact emergency personnel.
  • Provide a heated shelter for guests to warm up (and for guests who have failed to bring adequate clothing).
