Cancellation Policy
Beacon’s Cancellation and Refund Policy
In all situations, Beacon strives to act in a way that is fair, consistent and generous, and this is especially important to us when money is involved. It is important for camper families to understand that it is difficult to find campers to fill cancelled spots at a camp session, especially within a few weeks of the start of a session. Registering for a session at Beacon Bible Camp indicates that it is the intent of the camper to attend the session they are registering for, and expenses are made to prepare for those campers, even before they arrive at camp.
Refunds for all Camp Sessions
Our refund policy is as follows:
Cancellations 30 days before start of session: All Session Fees Refunded.
Cancellations 8-29 days before start of session: 50% of Session Fee Refunded. Bus & Tuck Deposit refunded in full.
Cancellations 7 days before start of session: No Session Fee or Bus Refunded. Tuck Deposit refunded in full.
Exceptions to this Policy
If a camper is unable to attend camp due to a previously undiagnosed medical reason (for example, an injury or illness that doesn't allow participation in camp programming), a full refund will be given, regardless of the date. In this situation, a note from a medical professional may be required in order to receive a full refund. Once a camp session has begun, no refund will be issued if a camper is dismissed from camp for reasons other than those of a medical nature.
Transportation Options
For many camp sessions, Beacon arranges transportation for campers, depending on the number of campers who require transportation and the time of year. These bus rentals require pre-planning as to the size and nature of the bus required. Campers are expected to register for bus transportation at least 7 days prior to camp. If it is less than 7 days to the start of the camp session, bus transportation cannot be guaranteed. Please contact the camp office as soon as possible for assistance.
Methods of Refunding Camper Payments
When a refund is approved, the refund amount will be deposited to the camper's Beacon account. If the camper’s original payment to Beacon was made via a credit card, the refund will be made to the same credit card. If original payment was made using cash or cheque, a cheque for the refund amount will be issued to the individual that submitted the original funds.
