PAYMENT FAQS

 
 

What does the program cost cover?

The cost of our summer trips covers food, lodging, group gear, staff salaries and annual first aid training, insurance, safety equipment, and ground transportation. Flights to Montana or Big Island are not covered in our program cost or scholarship funds.

Are there scholarships available?

Yes! We host a student-led fundraiser every Spring to raise money for scholarships. Students can apply for a scholarship in the program application. Our team will review scholarship requests and will do our best to provide scholarships to those who apply. Please note: our scholarships do not cover the cost of airfare.

What is the Wild Communities Foundation Summer Program Cancellation Policy?

We are a small organization and simply cannot absorb the full cost of late trip cancellations. As such, we ask that our community respect our cancellation policy:

  • Full refunds will be issued for cancellations made before February 15th.

  • 50% refunds will be issued for cancellations made between February 15th and April 15th.

  • No refunds issued for cancellations after April 15th. We will consider partial refunds for late cancellations if your child’s spot is filled.
