Terms of Service (Tree Trekkers)

Effective Date: 01/01/2025

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to your use of www.treetrekkersmd.com (the “Site”) and any reservations, ticket purchases, or other transactions you make through the Site. The Site is operated by Tree Trekkers Frederick LLC( "Tree Trekkers", “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By using the Site, or by purchasing/reserving tickets, you agree to these Terms.

1) Who These Terms Apply To

You agree that:

  • You are at least 18 years old, or you are using the Site with the involvement/permission of a parent or legal guardian.
  • If you purchase tickets or sign waivers for a minor, you confirm you are the minor’s parent/legal guardian or otherwise authorized to do so.

2) Reservations, Tickets, and Check-In

When you book a reservation or purchase tickets:

  • You agree to provide accurate contact and payment information.
  • You are responsible for arriving on time and following all staff instructions.
  • Participation requirements (such as supervision rules for minors, reach/height rules, course eligibility, etc.) are posted on the Site and may apply to your booking.

We may refuse entry or remove participants who do not meet safety requirements or do not follow instructions.

3) Waivers, Assumption of Risk, and Safety Rules

Tree Trekkers activities involve inherent risks (including but not limited to falls, collisions, equipment issues, weather-related hazards, and physical exertion). By purchasing tickets and/or participating:

  • You acknowledge and accept these risks.
  • You agree to follow all posted rules and staff directions.
  • You understand that a waiver is required, including for minors (to be completed/signed by a parent/guardian where applicable).

Important: These Terms do not replace any waiver you sign. The waiver and safety rules may include additional terms.

4) Pricing, Charges, and Payment

Prices are shown at the time of purchase and may change at any time. Your payment method will be charged as part of completing a reservation/purchase. Taxes/fees (if any) may be added at checkout.

5) Promotions, Discounts, Gift Certificates

Promotions and discounts may have separate terms (eligibility, valid dates/times, ID requirements, non-combinability, etc.). We may void a discount if eligibility requirements aren’t met. (Example: promotions requiring proof/ID at check-in.)

6) Text Messages and Communications

If you provide your phone number and opt in (or otherwise authorize messages), you agree you may receive texts related to your reservation or customer service. You can cancel the SMS service at any time by replying or texting "STOP" to the number you received the communication from. After you send the SMS message "STOP" to us, we will send you an SMS message to confirm that you have been unsubscribed. After this, you will no longer receive SMS messages from us. If you want to join again, just sign up as you did the first time and we will start sending SMS messages to you again.
If you are experiencing issues with the messaging program you can reply with the keyword HELP for more assistance.

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
As always, message and data rates may apply for any messages sent to you from us and to us from you. The number of messages you will receive will vary. If you have any questions about your text plan or data plan, it is best to contact your wireless provider.
