Completing the Application

If you are not yet 18 years old we would still love to have you as a member, however we will need the parental consent section of the form filled out and signed by a parent or legal guardian. We encourage parents to be involved with their children in helping Weather Awareness Resource Network achieve the goals set forth in our mission statement. Your signing of the form will allow your child to order materials from W.A.R.N. for distribution within the community you live in. Please understand that when materials are ordered in large quantities you must have room in your house to store these materials until they can be distributed, these materials are very expensive and are supplied at no charge to the members.
