Priority Booking (for Area Directors/Champions)

Begins on Tuesday January 16th, 2024

Priority booking for Young Life Area Directors/Champions began at 8:30am Mountain Time on Tuesday, January 16th, 2024. If you'd like to bring a Champion group please call our office at 719-395-2477. See priority booking guidelines listed below. Not familiar with the Trail West Champion program? Click here for more information.

Booking:Rooms can be booked with a $1,000 non-refundable deposit/room. No limit to the number of rooms, subject to availability. Area Director/Champion pays all deposits and then has individual families call in to give family information. Deposits are subject to cancellation policy.

All rooms booked by Champions with a deposit must have individual family reservations made by November 1, 2024.

Courtesy Holds:​ Rooms can be placed on courtesy hold to allow families to call in and book with a deposit. Repeat champions can hold up to 100% of the number of rooms booked their last visit. New champions can hold up to 6 rooms (including their own). If all rooms on hold are booked, additional rooms can be placed on hold subject to availability.

Courtesy holds placed during priority booking expire on Tuesday February 13th, 2024. Once General Booking begins, Area Directors/Champions can book and hold rooms using the same guidelines for priority booking. However, courtesy holds will vary from one week to only 24 hours depending on availability and demand.

*If you are a Young Life Area Director appointing a champion from your area please email lrobards@trailwest.younglife.org​ with that information prior to January 2nd, 2024.

General Booking (Deposit and Cancellation Policy)

Begins on March 1st, 2024

Phones will open at 8:30am Mountain Time on Friday, March 1st, 2024 for general booking. Rooms can be booked with a $1,000 non-refundable deposit subject to the cancellation policy. There is no limit to the number of rooms that can be booked, subject to availability. Full payment is due by February 1st, 2025.

 

Deposit Policy: ​ A $1,000 non-refundable deposit is due upon booking a room. Full payment is due by February 1st, 2025.

Cancellation Policy:​ ​ If you cancel your room before February 1st, 2025, you forfeit the $1,000 deposit. If you cancel your room after February 1st, 2025, your full payment is non-refundable.
