If you are trying to register online and a camp is full, the system will notify you that you are being placed on a waiting list. If you are placed on a waiting list, no payment is required. If space becomes available in the camp your child is waiting on, the Jolly Roger Adventures Team will call you to see if you would still like to fill the opening or if you would prefer to pass the opening to the next person on the waiting list.
Because our camp curriculum builds upon itself over the course of a week, we do not recommend campers missing days of camp. That said, we understand that summer schedules can be very busy, so if your camper needs to miss a portion of a camp program, we can accommodate that. We cannot, however, prorate the cost of camp programs, and we are not able to offer makeup days for missed portions of camp.
Cancellation requests that are submitted in writing by May 1 are eligible for a full tuition refund minus a $50 cancellation fee per camp enrollment. Tuition is nonrefundable after May 1. Camp fees cannot be refunded or prorated for missed days, including unexpected absences.
Pending availability, you can transfer your camper's enrollment to another JRA camp by submitting your request via writing to msmith@steds.org. Tuition differences from one camp to the next will be applied to your credit card on file, and a $10 fee is applicable for each transfer. Transfers are not available after 5 p.m. on the Thursday before your camp week.
