Put your new skills into practice with scenarios..
This course is for anyone who ever asked himself
or herself…”what would I do if something happened
right now?”
Cost : $135
This trip will be a first-come-first-serve and
this is based on who can deliver their $135 (GST
included) cheque/cash/INTERAC e-Transfer first.
Your payment options are as follows: mail a cheque out to the
attention of "Alpine Club of Canada - Calgary Section" to the address
I will email you once a few have registered.. Or send an INTERAC e-
Transfer to the ACC Treasurer using treasurertandl@ACCCalgary.ca,
We prefer the later.
Let the treasurer know your name, email and the course it is for! Also,
send a follow-up email to the Treasurer with the password. We prefer
INTERAC e- Transfer.
Pease be advised that if you have paid and need to pull out of the
course, there will be no refund. Rather, it will be your responsibility to
find a replacement and obtain a cash transfer from that person. The
T&L Committee will work to help you find a replacement if time
allows. The sooner we know that you cannot attend the better.
