Holiday Camp Refund Policy
If you cancel four weeks before the camp you are signed up for you will get a refund.
A $25 administration fee will be taken out of your $100 camp tuition. I will refund you $75.
If you cancel after four weeks before the camp, you will not get a refund.
I have to make sure that I will be able to fill your child's spot, so I need time
to put out a notice to families and to follow up with those on the waiting list if there are any.
Thank you for your understanding.
