No cancellation fee shall be charged to the participant if the trip has changed from what was originally advertised regarding dates, destination, mode of transportation, or if there has been a cost increase of more than 15 % from the originally advertised price. A trip participant may not sell their spot. If they are gifting their spot, they must pay for any associated expenses and notify the trip leader of their cancellation. Only the trip leader may sell or resell a trip spots.

Changes to a participant’s registration options may also result in a refund or additional expense to them. These changes shall be reported by the trip leaders to the Treasurer. The Treasurer and only the Treasurer, will then process the registration change and apply any refunds or recognize the additional expense as approved by the trip leader.
