Protection Plan

Unexpected cancellations are a hassle for both you and your participants. Your budget is based on a certain number of participants, but you don’t want to be punitive to your families who have to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances. The Protection Plan helps protect both you and your participants from the unexpected.

Emergency medical expenses can be scary too. For example, if a camper were to need to go to an emergency room or have a helicopter evacuation during a backcountry trip, this cost would not fall on the camp or family if they purchased a protection plan.

FAQ

 What if a family only wants emergency medical coverage?

If a family is only interested in purchasing a protection plan for emergency medical coverage, and they do not want coverage for tuition and transportation costs, they’ll simply enter $0.00 for these amounts when purchasing the plan. In this instance, there is no coverage for cancellation or interruption.

 What if a family doesn’t want to purchase a plan?
Not a problem. The protection plan is completely optional for the families, and they can simply bypass it.
