MMSCA Covid-19 Refund Policy – Updated 9/23
Due to the many questions about the upcoming season regarding the impact of the extreme unknowns surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic, the Mt. Mansfield Ski Club & Academy has amended the refund policy for out-of-state participants in the 2020/2021 Weekend Program whose travel to Vermont is affected by the State of Vermont’s cross-state travel quarantine requirements.
Note: The following policy does not apply to our Full Time, Winter Term, Tutorial programs, or in-state residents. Please refer to the MMSCA Student-Athlete and Parent Book for policies specific to those programs.
First and foremost, it is important that you familiarize yourself with MMSCA’s Requirements for Attendance and Covid-19 Policies, and The Vermont Department of Commerce and Community Development’s Cross-State Travel Restrictions. We will continue to strictly follow these requirements and they could impact your family’s ability to participate in our programs if traveling from out-of-state.
As a result of these unknowns and our willingness to allow our customers to reevaluate their situations, the Covid-19 refund policy is as follows:
Date (2020) Refund amount
Before October 15th 95%
Before November 15th 50%
After November 15th no refund
