Important Updates    June 23, 2022


Covid


The CDC has rescinded the requirement for airlines to check for a negative covid test before

anyone can return to the US from abroad.  This happened while I was out of the country

last week and it was a great relief and saved a lot of time and money. Although proof of

vaccine status is also no longer required, I recommend you have it with you anyway.


​

Airlines


The airlines are still experiencing staffing shortages and making lots of adjustments to

their schedules. Don’t be surprised if your flight is changed (hopefully not canceled). Mine

has already been changed twice.


​

Consent Forms
​


You will be asked to sign two forms when we get to Nevis. One is an Image Release. This

gives me permission to use your picture on the website or in publications that result from

the project.  You are not required to sign.  If you don’t want your picture used, simply

don’t sign.
​


The second form is a Hold Harmless affidavit.  This form states that you are aware there are

inherent risks in doing archaeology and that you are a volunteer and accept the risks; that

you have access to our own medical insurance; and do not hold me responsible for injury. 

This is a standard form you would have signed for the university field school.  It basically

protects me from lawsuits.  I have no intention of putting anyone into a hazardous

situation, but little accidents happen. Example; in 2012 a student broke his foot on the

last day of the project before flying home. He stepped off a curb in an awkward way. He

was getting married the following week and did so in cast and crutches!



Opportunity


We have been asked to assist in training a group of Nevisians with preservation practices

​ for maintaining historic sites.  I agreed to fit in a couple days for this during our stay.
