parent guide - refund policy

If a camper must leave camp before the end of the session for which he or she is enrolled, the following policy will be in effect:

1. Refund, for full weeks which coincide with regular session dates, will be made for illness or accidents resulting in a camper leaving before the end of the session. No refunds will be made for partial weeks.

2. If a camper is requested by the camp Director to leave camp because of violation of camp regulations or because of personal conduct which interferes with the health or welfare of himself/herself or others, then no refunds will be made.

3. Campers will not be entitled to a refund if they leave camp because of (1) homesickness; (2) refusal to participate in the normal activities of the camp; (3) evidence that some emotional or physical problem which predates their arrival at camp and results in the lack of adjustment to camp and/or adversely effects the health and well being of other campers.

4. If it is necessary for a reservation to be cancelled for personal reasons or because of a change in family plans, the camp office in Baltimore must be informed in writing by May 1, 2008. After that date, refunds will be made only if a replacement can be made for that session.

5. Any change of session within 2 months of registration is subject to a $25.00 change of session fee. If the change of session request comes after two months since registration, the change of session fee will be $50.00. And/Or - If the session change comes after May 1, 2008, and if the spot can not be filled, you will be required to pay for the full two or four week session. If the spot can be filled you will still be responsible for the change of session fee.

6. If a refund is deemed appropriate, it can only be credited to the credit card to the extent of the original charge.

7. There will be a $150.00 service and handling fee deducted from any refund (regardless of the cause) prior to January 15, 2008. After January 15, 2008, the service and handling fee deduction will be $250.00.

The above information regarding change of session and service and handling fees was contained in the policy statement that you signed when you submitted your camper's application.
