I put that I was allergic to something on my health form, and they called me to the nurses station, saying I was suppose to take my medication. "Medication? I don't take medication." So I went to talk to them about it, "it said on your form you're suppose to take Allegra D." "Umm, no, that's the medication I'm allergic to!" So I showed them the copy of my health form and they let me go, lol.

Do not worry too much about Dippin Dots if you are allergic to them. I am sure the camp staff will appreciate if you do not go into anaphalactic shock while you are there - and you will have more fun if you don't. I am allergic to all sorts of odd items and medications, so I know where you come from. The number of questions the nurse asked me after reading my health form was daunting.

Hang in there and eat OREO biscuits instead... mmmm.... crushed up OREOs on banana is just as good as a banana split any day! (That is, if OREO biscuits are trace-free in the United States.)

I know oreos used to be ok but now that they make the two flavored ones like penut butter and fudge i'm not sure. It's always better to be safe than sorry and like i said the nurses really dont like to mess with allergies lol. They taste just like the ice cream in the cafeteria and you dont have to pay 3.00 dollars for that!

yea they serve them at the food section. dunno about u but at my bj's they have banana split, chocolate, rainbow, and oreo.

Yea too bad they melt unless stored by dry ice. Maybe one day they'll find a way to put them in a conventional freezer....

Theres a way but it requires a much more powerful freezer than most people are willing to pay the electricity bill for. :lol:

WHAT!! :evil: :evil: :evil: I thought that they did a shuttle mission! on the phone they said they had no mars thing. They also said they had a shuttle mission. The mars thing may be a guide-ism I saw the mars thing on the site. I looked pretty stupid anyway, and you don't even wear space suits for the EVA. All you wear is your regualar clothes! If they do the mars thing, I'll probally be on mission control.

As far as i know space camp still does shuttle missions as there main mission. Atleast it use to be the mars thing was an aditional thing but i know alot has changed. I'm 99.99% sure you'll get atleast one shuttle mission in there though.
