| Notes: |
|
As mentioned before, this is NOT a course. It is
simply a great
way to join with fellow ACC members to review rock
rescue
Basics. If you are interested in learning rock
rescue, I highly
recommend that you take a course thru a certified
ACMG
guide. If you are unsure if this event is for you
or if you have
any questions, please contact the trip coordinator
|
|
Please only sign up if you are sure to attend.
Cancellation Policy
If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Calgary Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
