As the ski season is almost upon us it seems like
a good
idea to practice with your beacon. We're going to
spend
some time covering the basics before splitting
into smaller
teams to practice so we'd encourage you to come
along
even if you've never used one before. If we have
time we'll
also go over shovelling techniques.
This is a good refresher from BCA on Beacon

Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!
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.
