Any student whose ID card is not visible will lose the privilege of skiing for the remainder of that trip. 2. There will be helmet rule in effect for ALL skiers and snowboarders. If you forget your helmet, you will not go on the trip. Wrist guards will also be required for all snowboarders. Most of the injuries in the past have been broken wrists of snowboarders without wrist guards. You must carry your helmet and wrist guards onto the bus and show it as you board. There are no helmet or wrist guard rentals available. HELMET POLICY: We require that all skiers and snowboarders wear helmets at all times on the slopes, even while waiting in line. This is something we at Beattie take very seriously. Any student not wearing a helmet during trips 1, 2, or 3 will be banned from the remainder of the Ski/Snowboard trips this school year. Any student not wearing a helmet on trips 4, 5, or 6 will be banned from the remainder of the Ski/Snowboard trips this school year and will be banned from Ski/Snowboard Club for the following school year. The NO REFUND rule will still apply. 3. Any student who does not follow bus rules on the way to Snow Summit will lose the privilege of skiing on that entire trip. Any student who does not follow bus rules on the way home will lose the privilege of attending the next trip. 4. Any student who does not follow rules at Snow Summit will be pulled off of the slope and lose the privilege of attending the next trip. 5. We do anticipate that students will have cell phones with them. However, they are not to be used on the bus unless told to by a chaperone. Anyone found using a cell phone on the bus will lose 1 hour of skiing. 6. Any student who is late getting to the bus after school, (after 3:30) will be left behind. We will not wait. 7. Any student late getting back to the bus at Snow Summit (after 9:00pm) will lose 1 hour of the next trip. 8. Any student who is picked up more than 15 minutes after the bus arrives back at Beattie Middle School will lose the first hour of skiing on the following trip. A second occurrence will result in losing the privilege to attend the entire next trip. 9. If any of the infractions occur, the student’s parents will be notified. 10. In the lower lodge, there is a bar upstairs. Students are not allowed in the bar at any time for any reason. 11. This is a school function and therefore, school rules apply. 12.

3 CHAPERONES We will need parent chaperones for each of the trips. You do not need to attend all of the trips, so if you can only come some of the time, that is fine. To qualify as a chaperone, you must be the parent / step parent / legal guardian of one of the students attending the trip. You must also ride up and back down on the bus. If you would like to ski, you will receive a lift ticket free of charge. Rentals are on your own. You will be responsible to look out for the students from Beattie and report any misconduct to a Beattie teacher. If interested, email Mrs. Jackson at kandi_jackson.redlands.k12.ca.us for more clarification or to sign up as a chaperone. Any potential chaperones must fill out a short chaperone packet. If we have room, we will put you on a bus. Every parent must initial just in case you choose to chaperone any of the trips.
