Ownership Transition FAQ’s
Why is Ace Camps Travel changing ownership?
Our founder, Angela Ritchie, was in the process of transitioning Ace Camps Travel to new owners when she ultimately passed away following her brave and determined journey with cancer. Angela’s wish was for the community to continue to thrive and for Ace Camps Travel to continue to offer curious travelers unique experiences steeped in inspiration, curiosity and learning.
I’m signed up for a 2024 trip. Will there be any changes to the trip I signed up for?
Our 2024 trips will continue without change or interruption. If you signed up for a 2024 trip, you’ll be learning from the same amazing artists, exploring the same gorgeous locales, and enjoying the same great trip you signed up for.
You may notice some small differences in some of our business processes, such as which email your invoice comes from or which software we use for processing payments. Rest assured, our goal is to minimize any changes to our behind-the-scenes operations to ensure you receive the same care and support you’ve come to know, love, and expect from Ace Camps Travel.
I have a credit with Ace Camps Travel, what will happen to it?
With the change of ownership your credit for future trips will continue to be honored. If you are looking to infuse some inspiration and fun into 2024 with your credits, check out our Trips page to see which adventure is right for you. If you want to confirm the amount of your credit, have questions about how to use your credit, or if you’re ready to sign up for a 2024 trip to use your credit, email us at hello@acecampstravel.com.
I’ve worked closely with Jessica Stuart-Crump over the years. How will Jessica’s role change in this transition?
Over the years you’ve likely connected with Jessica, our Director of Trip Design, as she’s been working alongside Angela our founder and previous owner to make Ace Camps Travel a special experience. We are excited and honored to have Jessica continue her journey with Ace Camps Travel and join us in this next phase. Jessica will remain an integral leader on the Ace Camps Travel team, working closely with artists and partners to deliver incredible experiences for our guests.
What new things can we expect with the change in ownership?
The new owners, Vida and Tanya, fell in love with all the things that make Ace Camps Travel special and we don’t plan on changing any of that—you can expect more amazing trips featuring unique destinations, talented artists, and inspiring experiences, all crafted with the same care and attention to detail you’ve come to know and love. If you’d like to say hello or have suggestions on a new location you'd like to visit or an incredible artist you’d like to learn from, feel free to reach out to us anytime at hello@acecampstravel.com.
