Before registering and participating in any of our events, a race participant must agree to the following policies in their entirety. SnowGoat Skimo reserves the right to modify these policies at any time.
Regular Season Refund policy:
TBD
Kulshan Rando Policy: We recognize the risk a race team might take in registering for an ambitious race like the Rando.
We have partnered with Movemint (our registration platform) to offer a cancellation insurance. If we are unable to host the race, each race team will receive a full refund of their registration fee. The fee for this insurance is 3% of the registration fee. The refund will be processed through a third party entity. We understand this is yet another added cost, but feel the value and protection it offers is significant towards ensuring race teams will be made whole.
Race Captains will have the option of purchasing Racer Registration Protection through Movemint during checkout, for an additional 3%, which would cover unexpected travel interruptions outside a team’s control.
If a team opted not to purchase Racer Reg Protection and must pull their entry, they will be offered a deferral credit, valid for one year:
If notified 60+ days before race, 75% deferral credit
If notified within 30 - 60 days of race, 66% deferral credit
If notified within 7 - 30 days of race, 33% deferral credit
If notified within 7 days of races, no deferral credit
Teams are allowed to transfer their race entry to another team
Pregnancy Deferral: Any registered racer who becomes pregnant during the months preceding their race may opt for a Pregnancy Deferral. Please email a doctor's note to us and we will happily honor the fact that you are bringing a new and precious skimo racer into the community. The deferral is valid for two years. Please notify us 30 or more in advance of your race date.
Transfer: You can transfer your race entry to another individual or a future race. Please email us at richard@snowgoatskimo.com. We will have you process a $10 fee + any difference in registration costs, paid through Paypal.
Financial Hardship Scholarship: We want skimo racing to be accessible to everyone. We set our registration fees to appropriately cover the resort permit fees, insurance, materials, and one part time staff member for some of the back end work. However, we know the race fees might be too high for some community members to afford, so we have a Financial Hardship Scholarship available for those individuals. Please email us at andrew@snowgoatskimo.com if you would like to apply. Also, remember that you can earn a free race entry by just volunteering or bringing your touring partner out to volunteer while you race!
Service Discount: As a veteran operated organization, we are proud to offer a 15% military discount for the race series. Use the code “Essayons” during checkout on webscorer. Please bring your service ID to check in for validation with our staff.
First Responder Discount: We want to thank our firefighters, EMTs, and police offers with a 15% off discount as well. Use the code “FirstResponder” during checkout on webscorer. Please bring your work ID to check in for validation with our staff.
Transgender Athlete Policy: SnowGoat Skimo supports equal opportunity across cisgender divisions in competition. We follow USA Skimo’s Transgender Athlete Policy, found here.
