THE INITIAL $350.00 DEPOSIT IS 100% REFUNDABLE through November 22,

www.wcv.com/art/pdfs/TG008444_FITflyer%20.pdf. The cost is $29pp.
If a student drops out of the trip after November 22, 2013 refunds are handled as
follows: Cancellation must be in writing and delivered directly to Mrs. Vesper.
Verbal notification is not acceptable. He/she is subject to extensive fees, the
cost of which will be determined at the time of cancellation. This amount may be
close to cost of the trip. If the student has purchased insurance and the
cancellation is for a covered reason, the family must submit their claim directly to
the insurance carrier for reimbursement, but is still responsible for completing the
payment schedule to Upper Moreland as outlined in this packet.
LATE PAYMENT PENALTIES
Since Upper Moreland High School is contracted to make regular payments to
the tour operators, hotels, airlines, etc., prompt student payments as per the
agreed upon schedule is important. A $10.00 late fee will be added to any
payment not received by a deadline date. The complete payment schedule,
including amounts, deadlines, and late fees, is listed on the following page.
