U.S. Feast Sites and Fragrance Sensitivities
The United Church of God is aware of the increasing sensitivities and allergies to fragrances affecting our members and society in general. For the Feast it is nearly impossible to offer a room that eliminates all fragrances. However, most of our U.S. Feast sites attempt to provide some relief by either reserving a room (and prohibiting anyone wearing perfumes, etc. to enter) or designating a section of the meeting hall as a fragrance-free area. In many cases, these are not full solutions, but they can somewhat aid those who experience allergic reactions in their attempt to attend services.
The following U.S. sites provide some measure of assistance: Bend, Oregon; Branson, Missouri; Cincinnati, Ohio/Northern Kentucky; Escondido, California; Kerrville, Texas; Lancaster, Pennsylvania; Panama City Beach, Florida; and Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. If you need more details as to what the specific site that you want to attend offers, e-mail USFestival@ucg.org or call (970) 484-5878.
