• During the program in the auditorium, there will be a scent free area near air flow with standing room and limited seating for pregnant, elderly, and/or disabled folks.
• During the march, we will be in a public space and therefore, may encounter fragrances.  Please do what you need to do to take care of yourself and please let a SFWAR volunteer of staff member know if we can assist you in any way.
