Registration
Thank you for your interest in participating in an ONDA trip. We will respond to your complete submission within 2 weeks with an e-mail letting you know if you have been registered for the trip or have a spot on the waitlist. Additional details about the group stewardship trip will be emailed to you a few weeks before the event. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
In 2023 ONDA will have multiple registration periods for seasonal trips; however you will only need to fill out the full form once. A short form will be available for those registering for a second or third time.
Project Deposits
It takes a great deal of effort to plan each of our projects, and we have lofty objectives tied to the projects we design. To ensure that we have full trips, we are asking volunteers to make a $25 deposit for group trips to show their commitment to attending each trip they sign up for.
Please remember that project deposits are refundable. Once you complete your volunteer project with ONDA, you will have the option to request a refund or donate your deposit.
Cancellations
If you cancel less than one month before the project start date, your deposit will be considered a donation to ONDA’s Stewardship Program and will be used to offset the hardship of backfilling your space. Thank you for your understanding.
Confidentiality
We ask for this information so that our trip staff will know in advance of any special medical conditions you may have. These questions are NOT used to screen trip participants; however, the leader may contact you to discuss whether the trip(s) you have registered for will be safe and enjoyable for you. This form is confidential, seen only by ONDA trip leaders.
COVID Vaccination Policy
ONDA strongly encourages volunteers to be vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to safeguard the health of our employees and volunteers, their families, and the communities in which we live and work. All ONDA staff are required to be fully vaccinated and boosted.
Vaccination no longer required: Effective January 1, 2023, volunteers participating in group stewardship trips will no longer be required to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination. However, we will continue to offer masks to volunteers for carpooling or other activities when volunteers will be in close proximity to one another. If you have any concerns about staying healthy while volunteering, please contact your trip leader or Gena Goodman-Campbell, stewardship program director, to discuss options for accommodating your needs on group trips or independent projects.
