Metro Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Maximum Amount
CA$500.00

Do you remember how much fun the “field trip” was when you were in school? Do you recall that it was even more fun if the trip was to a natural space like a park? Did you know that this experience is not available to many youth today? Every year thousands of students, seniors and people with financial barriers are not able to visit our regional parks. Why? Because there is no funding to charter a bus.

Application Details

Before chartering your bus, you will need to complete Metro Vancouver Regional Park’s Group Visit Notification Form so that they can check that there isn’t any construction, trail closures, filming or other groups at the same time and place that you’re planning to go.

This is not required if you have booked a field trip with Metro Vancouver Regional Parks. 

How do I apply?

  • Fill in the Online Application
  • Send us a supporting letter of interest telling us a little about your planned trip at least 60 days before you go
