              variety of exciting day trips, educational seminars, and extended travel
              opportunities for our Platinum Adventures friends over the next several
              months. Get out your calendar and start making plans.

              Since your safety is our utmost concern, we will be taking protective
              measures at events. Face coverings will be used when required and event
              attendees may be required to show proof of vaccination or negative

     RESPONSIBILITY OF BEVERLY BANK & TRUST:
     Platinum Adventures and Beverly Bank & Trust are not the source or supplier of the travel services offered, but act solely as agent for the actual suppliers of
     such services. Your participation in any such travel services is conditioned upon your consent to the use of those suppliers and your agreement not to hold
     Platinum Adventures and Beverly Bank & Trust responsible should any of these suppliers: 1) fail to provide the travel services purchased; 2) fail to comply with
     any applicable law; or 3) engage in any negligent act or omission that causes any sort of injury, damage, delay, or inconvenience.
     Your participation is also conditioned upon your agreement to review all of your travel documents, including applicable cancellation and travel insurance

     travel insurance policies. Group travel fares typically involve restrictions and changing any aspect of your travel arrangements may result in the payment of
     additional money. Cancellation or failure to attend any part of your Platinum Adventures travel, tour, or event may result in financial penalties up to and
     including the loss of all monies paid. A travel insurance policy may provide a remedy if you canceled for a covered reason.
     Beverly Bank & Trust is acting in the capacity of extending this invitation to travel to the Platinum Adventures members and their guests. Beverly Bank &
     Trust reserves the right to refuse acceptance to anyone it judges incapable of meeting the rigors and requirements of participating in any activity or trip
