We have not been to Scarby yet, but we intend to one day.

You'd be surpised what we use our flask for. Apple Juice! Davens is diabetic and having apple juice immediately available rather than waiting in line when his blood sugar is 52 only to be told that we'd have to go to a different stand because that stand is out of the high sugar drinks is not an option!

How would this affect us? I'm curious because he has to have something with sugar (especially since the extra walking around at faires does a toll on the blood sugar levels.)

I think you'd be fine, Jade. If questioned it's a non-alcoholic drink and you have it for a pretty good reason. Of course, the best answer for you is to call the office and ask. Worst case is just smuggle it in.

Thankyou! I just wanted to be sure. It's always a surprise when people find out that there's not any alcohol in the flask.

Not to be overly negative, but apple juice is still a beverage, and they dont like anyone bringing their own, alcoholic or not (Im not saying you dont have a good reason to carry it though, gotta keep that sugar balanced). I kinda wanna make a suit of armor out of flasks (yeah, I'm a smartass, but a lazy smartass, so there is nil chance that I actually will  ). So far its about even with the dont cares and the negative feelings, about what I expected.

actually, I know a couple who have diabetes as well as several food sensitivies and dietary restrictions, they've been able to take a small cooler in with their own food & non-alcoholic beverages for years

[J M Gryphon]

True, I think special needs should be allowed acception to the rule, it would be bad publicity to have some one keel over from a food allergy at faire     Oh well, they cant tell if Im smuggling it in, in my gut   

[Merlin the Elder]

Yeah...hopefully they won't bring in the TSA. I gave up flying because of them—I won't give up faire...they'd be in for a fight.   

Exceptions would have to be made for those with special needs, otherwise the faire would be in violation of federal law. I think it would fall under the A.D.A. (Americans with Disabilities Act).

Teach, you are in luck.  You should be able to get your rum in as a medical necessity.

I've always wanted a flask ever since I was younger. But since I'm not a huge drinker, I have thought about putting Gatorade in it! lol... Now I know it can work out!
