Guardian accounts are required for participants under the age of 18. Guardians should be a parent or legal guardian as they are required to sign documents for events.

Guardian accounts have full access to the same dashboard that their minor sees. Guardians can click on a minor's name to see who has been accepted on the trip and exactly where the minor is in the application process. Also, guardians can complete requirements that minors may not be able to, for example, signing a legal document that a minor can't because they are underage.

Guardians do not automatically receive event update emails. If a minor has their own email address, their guardian should log in to their account and check for updates often.

There are four ways to add guardian accounts:

• A guardian can add themselves after registering a minor.
• A minor over the age of 13 applying to a trip themselves can add a guardian.
• Someone other than a guardian or admin registering a minor and adding the guardian's contact information.
• An admin at the organization hosting the trip can manually add a guardian.
