The Google Calendar has been updated, and you can read the official document here.

One more (minor) change -- Disney has pushed our parade performance ahead by approximately 15 minutes, to 2:20 PM.  I have already adjusted the itinerary accordingly.  Most importantly, the students need to be at the backstage gate by 12:45 PM now, instead of 1 PM. The updated itinerary can be found here.

This Remind group is for ALL students/parents on the trip (band and choir).

Welcome to the GroupCollect portal for your spring trip to Disney World!!  Please use the link provided to register for the trip.  Here are a few things to know when registering.  Please read through these before registering.

Once clicking the link below, select “Register now” to proceed.  You will have to create an account with your email and create a password for the portal.  (In some cases, school domain emails may be restricted, please use a Gmail or other email.)  You will then receive an email to verify your account before you can continue (Sometimes it may be in your spam folder).   

Everyone participating on the trip must register with the portal.  For anyone under 18 years of age, a parent or guardian must complete the registration on their behalf.  Multiple people from the same family on the same trip can register together so they have a single log-in.  (i.e. a dad chaperoning on a trip with their child or both parents with a child on the same trip).  You still register each person and have to select the packages each one is doing and complete all the information required for each participant.

Complete all the required information necessary. (Personal data, emergency data, etc.)

Choose the applicable package for the trip of the person you are registering.

Choose an insurance option: Enhanced, Standard or Decline.  You must choose one of the 3 to complete your registration.

The insurance options will be shown as Enhanced Coverage, Standard Coverage, or Decline.  It is encouraged to select and purchase insurance to protect your trip.  If purchasing the Enhanced Coverage, you must purchase within 20 days of registration.  This will be the only item you will pay for on the portal and you will have credit card or ACH Transaction options for payment.

If you are not selecting insurance, you will select Decline and not need to input payment info and can stop before that process.  Your account will still show as pending, but that will change when manual payments are applied.

The portal has been set-up with a $0.00 (zero) deposit due at registration.  This will enable you to proceed to the insurance options before a payment is posted to your account.

While registering, members will get to the point of completing their info and selecting insurance and a screen is indicating you are almost complete, you just need to “pay the deposit.”  The portals have been set up to combine the trip deposit and the insurance together as the ‘deposit.’  In cases where the trip deposit is set to $0.00, the ‘deposit’ it is asking for should only be equal only to the payment amount of the insurance. 

The portal will show a screen where the total trip cost is displayed with the insurance amount with a ‘proceed to payment’ option.  This is not the payment selection.  When you proceed to make the payment, the next screen is where you enter your payment method (credit card or ACH) and then the last screen will show ‘Select payment’ options of paying balance, paying deposit or specific amount.  The deposit due amount should reflect ONLY the amount for the insurance.  Please do not pay any other amount then the insurance!

You are required to agree to and sign all required documents.

Once you have completed the steps listed, your registration is complete.  You will receive updates or additional information required for the trip to the email used in the registration process.  The director and myself will send that info as it becomes necessary.

Please Note: DO NOT make a payment towards your trip balance and DO NOT select Autopay to avoid any additional or accidental charges.  Payments you have made to the school and sent to the travel company will be manually posted to your account. (Please note: ** All refund requests/cancellations will incur a minimum 4% reduction in possible refunds - Covers payment processing fees **)
