Default Cooler ok to bring at MSF?

We're in a massive bloody heatwave here and the damn concrete or asphalt surface will make things even worse.

so I was thinking of bringing a mini cooler with drinks to the MSF. is this ok to do?

5 days to go, sweet.

I cant imagine a situation where they would say no considering everything you'll be wearing and doing.

Also, throw a few wash cloths into the cooler so you can use those to cool off when the ice starts to melt.

My instructors used this method to cool off, and we(the students) all copied that idea the second day of the course; it made the second day of 90 degree heat much more bearable.

damn you guys are lucky, i took my course during the fall. and fall in seattle is cold and wet. it was in the high 40s and wet the whole time we were in course.

i really dont think that they would mind at all if you bring a cooler.
