Refund Policy

There will be no refunds after June 1st. There are no make-up days, credits, or refunds for missed days of camp due to illness, including COVID and quarantine requirements,  injury, vacations, or dismissals or any other reasons.  Roughing It reserves the right to make changes to the camp program without notice by adding, modifying, or canceling activities and camp as deemed necessary by the Directors, and no refunds or tuition adjustments will be made.

Absences & Missed Days of Camp

 

If your child will be absent from camp, please call or email the camp office as soon as possible and no later than 7:30am on that day. There are no make-up days, credits or refunds for missed days of camp due to illness, injury, vacations, or dismissals.

The Roughing It Experience for 1st Time Campers

We are dedicated to making camp safe, fun, and fulfilling for every child. There is sometimes a transition period when a child starts a brand new experience like camp. If your camper is not enjoying camp, we ask that you work with us proactively and your camper attend at least the first five days of camp. Please call our office to talk with our staff so we can work together to make camp a successful experience for your child. Tips for New Campers »

Full Disclosure

To ensure camp is safe and enjoyable for everyone, parents/guardians must provide Roughing It complete and accurate information about their child on all forms and in all communications. False or misleading information can negatively affect the camp experience and is grounds for dismissal from camp.

Safety Requirements for Program Participation

 

In order to ensure the health and safety of everyone at camp, all campers must meet and follow Roughing it’s Safety Requirements for Program Participation. If your child has a special need, disability, impairment, or condition that requires medication or other accommodations, please inform Roughing It and request a program modification or accommodation. All accommodation requests, enrollment forms and assessments must be submitted by April 1st in order for us to adequately assess the child’s needs and any reasonable accommodations needed. Please contact us if you have questions.

Once a parent/guardian submits a modification request, Roughing It will consider that request on a case-by-case basis. Roughing It will make individualized determinations based on the specific facts of each request. Roughing It may make reasonable modifications, unless the modifications would fundamentally alter the nature of its services or unless the individual poses a direct threat to the health or safety of others that cannot be eliminated by a modification of policies, practices, or procedures.
