-
Star Island follows New
Hampshire State law. Firearms, fireworks and illegal drugs of any
kind are strictly forbidden. Violators will take the next boat
off-island!
-
Because of the ever-present
fire risk of a 120-year-old wooden hotel, no open flame of any kind
is allowed in any of the buildings, so leave candles and incense at
home. Violators will need to leave the island on the next boat!
-
Pets are not allowed
(except seeing eye dogs).
-
The legal drinking age in
New Hampshire is 21 years of age. Those under the age of 21 are not
allowed to drink alcoholic beverages.
Alcoholic beverages may not be consumed
in public on Star except in approved locations at an activity
sponsored by the conference. Approved locations are Newton Centre,
the Lindquist Deck, the Stone Village Lawn, the Pink Parlor,
Brookfield, and the Summer House. At Social Hour only wine, beer and
sherry will be offered. Hard liquor is not allowed at Social Hour.
During Social hour the Friends of Bill will meet in the Pink Parlor.
-
Please do not use radios or
boom boxes in public areas without headphones.
-
Use personal cell phones
only in your room or discretely away from others on the island.
-
Due to limitations of the
island's electrical system and for safety reasons, conferees are
asked not to bring appliances with heating elements, i.e., heating
pads, hair dryers and hot water immersion heaters.
-
Under no circumstances
should any appliance be used in guestrooms. Hair dryers can be used
the in bathrooms outside the showers in the hotel basement, but
nowhere else.
-
If you require medical
equipment of an electrical nature, please notify the conference
registrar, so that proper arrangements can be made.
-
The island doctor can
arrange for the refrigeration of medication, if notified before
hand.
-
There are no paved areas on
Star, so you may not want to bring any equipment with wheels, such
as strollers.
-
There are no door locks on
guest rooms, so please leave valuables at home.
