 .\n\nFrequently Asked Questions\nWhat if less guides attend the sleepover 
 than anticipated?\n\nThis is fine\, it happens quite often. On the day of 
 the event you will be charged the remaining balance for the final number o
 f guiders who attended  the event. For example\, if you paid the 50% for 
 20 attendees (which is 10)  and only 15 attended the sleepover\, you will
  only be charged for the remaining 5 scouts. We will not reimburse you if 
 your expected attendance goes below 50%.\n\nDoes THEMUSEUM have an emergen
 cy evacuation procedure?\n\nYes\, THEMUSEUM has an emergency response plan
  for the night of the sleepover. Two staff members will stay on site overn
 ight to act as emergency coordinators. You will receive the emergency resp
 onse plan one week prior to the event.\n\nDo you accommodate allergies and
  dietary restrictions?\n\nTHEMUSEUM does our best to accommodate dietary r
 estrictions if we are informed of them in advance. Please include any alle
 rgies and dietary restrictions on your registration form. All of the snack
 s served during the sleepover will be nut free.\n\nWill you be providing f
 ull meals for the guides and supervisors? \n\nNo. We ask that all guides a
 nd supervisors eat dinner before arrival. THEMUSEUM will provide a light 
  evening snack of juice\, granola bar\, fruit or similar and a continenta
 l breakfast for all participants. We encourage everyone to bring a refilla
 ble water bottle to fill at our water stations in the building.\n\nAre you
 r staff first aid certified?\n\nYes. Most of THEMUSEUM staff are First Aid
  certified and at least one the overnight staff will have their up to date
  certification.\n\nWhat if one of my guides will not be staying overnight?
 \n\nThat is fine\, they can be picked up at any time\, just let the staff 
 at the front desk know so they can watch out for the door. Please note\, t
 hat the price for the guide will be the same as the ones who are staying o
 vernight.
