Details Upon Confirmation

Travel beyond 50 miles, and any arrangement outside the published packages, is itemized on the written quotation rather than folded into the headline price. You see the total before you commit to arrangements

Please provide your school address on the request form and the quotation comes back with any additional costs.

School Payments

School payments are managed through district invoice payments or school/PTA checks

Once a date and a package are agreed upon, the booking is invoiced so your district can process it exactly the way it processes any other outside vendor. Purchase order numbers are carried on the invoice.

If you need a W-9 or need to set up a vendor first, please check that box on the request form and it will be handled before the invoice is sent out.

Payment terms, deposit position and cancellation terms are stated in full on the written quotation and the booking agreement. Those two documents, not this page, are what your school agrees to. Booking terms.
