I understand it is my responsibility to prepare my students and adults for participation in a BOUNCE Mission using the preparation materials provided by BOUNCE.
My church will bring one adult female (21 years-of-age or older) for every 5 female students, and one adult male (21 years-of-age or older) for every 5 male students.
Adults must agree with Adult Expectations outlined in the Group Leader Handbook.
My church will conduct Criminal Background Checks and screen each participant (age 18 years and older) we bring and will provide a confirmation of Background Checks to BOUNCE upon arrival at the Mission on the confirmation form provided by BOUNCE. Additionally, my church will provide email addresses for all participants age 18 years of age and older, including students and adults, using the form provided by BOUNCE, in order to conduct MinistrySafe Certification. Information regarding access procedures to Ministry Safe Certification will be provided to Group Leaders upon receipt of deposits.
I understand I will provide transportation for my students and adults to the BOUNCE Mission, and my transportation will be used to transport BOUNCE Mission teams during the mission.
I understand that participants must have medical insurance to participate with BOUNCE. As such, I understand that BOUNCE, Texas Baptists, or the church/school housing participants are not financially responsible for any BOUNCE participant who is injured or becomes ill at the BOUNCE Mission. I understand that I, the Group Leader, have primary responsibility for the medical care and distribution of any prescription medications for my group members. If a participant does not have medical insurance, and I agree they can come with my church, my church or the participant is responsible to provide short term medical insurance for them at no cost to BOUNCE or its affiliates.
I also understand that BOUNCE is a disaster response/community rehabilitation mission experience or a Church Planting missions experience. As such, for all BOUNCE Summer Missions, students need to be at least 12 years-of-age and have completed 6th grade to attend. For Spring Break Missions, students need to be at least 11 years-of-age and currently be in 6th grade to attend. No exceptions.
I understand deposits must be paid promptly on JANUARY 15 and are NON-REFUNDABLE & NON-TRANSFERABLE toward final balances. Failure to pay deposit by the deadline may result in my group being dropped from the mission. I further understand remaining balances are due MAY 1 for June Missions, June 1 for July Missions, and February 15 for Spring Break Missions. If registering for a BOUNCE Mission after January 15, I understand that my deposit must be paid promptly upon receiving my invoice. I further understand that I must finalize my number of participants at least 1 week before my mission starts and will not be able to receive a refund for participants not able to attend after this point.
CANCELATION: If at any point my group decides to cancel participation in my BOUNCE mission trip, it must be done in writing to the Mission Coordinator and Director of BOUNCE. In the event of cancelation, deposit and balances paid are non-refundable.
