Trip Planning Guidelines

GS NorCal Approved High-Risk Vendor List

 

PLANNING A TRIP OR HIGH ADVENTURE ACTIVITY 

 

A trip is defined as any time your group has an activity at a time or location other than your regularly scheduled meeting place. This includes any change of troop meeting time or location as well as any day trips, field trips, or overnight trips. Exception: your activity is not defined as a trip if your group starts and ends at your regular meeting location and walks to your destination and your activity isn’t a high risk activity as defined by Safety-Wise.
