CANCELLATION POLICY
As a small California public benefit corporation (in progress), Aqualand of the Free works hard to keep our water education programs affordable while paying staff fairly and planning safe, high-quality camps.
Because camp capacity is limited and resources are scheduled ahead of time, the following cancellation policy applies:
Cancellations made at least 7 days prior to the start of camp (by 6:00 PM Monday) will receive a 75% refund.
The remaining 25% is a non-refundable deposit that secures your child’s spot.
Cancellations made within 7 days of the camp start date are non-refundable.
Please register with confidence in your schedule or with the understanding that enrollment includes a 25% non-refundable deposit.
Thank you for your cooperation!
