What's the refund policy?

If an individual cancels, the $80 deposit can be applied to a new participant; however, the deposit cannot be applied to your remaining camp balance. If a youth group or individual cancels at least 30 days prior to the first day of camp, registration fees (less the $80 deposits) will be refunded. The entire registration fee will be forfeited for cancellations less than 30 days from the start of your camp date.

Should your camp be cancelled due to an unforeseen event or circumstance such as a natural disaster, registration fees will be reapplied to another camp (even if it is the following summer).
