Our priority is to keep everyone safe and ensure a positive experience for all students. Any behavior that puts others at risk or violates club or resort rules may result in the following:

• Verbal warning from a chaperone or staff member

• Loss of skiing privileges for the day

• Required to stay with a chaperone for the remainder of the trip

• Contacting a parent/guardian

• Suspension from future trips (no refunds will be issued)

In serious cases, students may be removed from the program entirely. We count on each participant to represent the club with respect, responsibility, and kindness.

In cases of serious behavior issues, illness, or other situations where a student cannot continue the trip, a parent/guardian may be required to pick them up, even mid-day. Please make sure someone is available and reachable during all club events.
