Long Beach Troop 212

CANOE TRIP COSTS, RESERVATION DEPOSITS, FINAL PAYMENTS, PERMISSION SLIPS, AND CANCELLATIONS POLICY;

The estimated cost of this adventure will be $200.00 per person to cover the cost of food, transportation, souvenir patches, camp fees, vehicle parking fees, as well as rentals of canoes, paddles, and life jackets. We believe this to be a reliable estimate, and we will do everything possible to hold at this cost level. Any changes to the final price will be determined later based on the actual number of participants and any volume discounts we are able to secure.

All RESERVATION DEPOSITS of $100 must be submitted no later than the Monday, November 7^th Troop Meeting. Reservations payments should be made as soon as possible to ensure we will have a place for you. Of course you may choose to pay the full amount at any time.  Please be aware that trip deposits are treated as a “commitment to attend” and are forwarded to our equipment with that commitment in mind. All canoe trip payments, and Trip Permission Slips are collected by Jennifer Kerr at troop meetings.

All FINAL PAYMENTS, BSA Medical Forms, if applicable, ( see BSA MEDICAL FORMS below) as well as the required Troop 212 Parent Permission Forms and Desert River Canoe Rental Permission Forms (copies will be available on our web page) all must be submitted/collected no later than the Monday, December 5^th, Troop Meeting. If these payments, and all required forms, are not received by the Monday, December 5^th deadline, this may be treated as an automatic cancellation, with a possible loss of deposit monies.

All checks should be payable to “BSA Troop 212″.  Sorry, but any bounced checks will be treated as an automatic cancellation. If you need to request a cancellation/refund, we can only return to you any un-expended funds we have not submitted/committed on your behalf to our vendors, so be sure by November 7^th deposit deadline that you are serious about attending this High Adventure on the Colorado River.
