Camp Policies

Payment: Payment is due in full at time of registration. Failure to receive payment will result in the registration being cancelled.

Cancellation Policy: A lot of preparation and effort goes into planning our events. Registration can be cancelled with a minimum of 1-month notice and a refund will be issued minus a $15 administration fee. Cancellations with a minimum of 14 days notice will receive a 50% refund. Cancellations with less than 14 days notice will not receive a refund. In the event of illness, the camper can have their registration transferred to another participant. If Wild & Immersive has to cancel the camp, a full refund will be issued.

Acknowledgement of Risk Form: A Participant Information and Acknowledgement of Risk form must be filled out by each participant and signed by the child’s parent or legal guardian. Any registrants who do not submit this form will not be able to attend camp. The form will be attached to your confirmation email.

Illness Policy: There is zero tolerance for any child attending camp while sick or exhibiting any cold or flu like symptoms. If you child is ill, do not send them to camp. If your child develops symptoms while at camp, they will be separated from the group and sent home.

What to Bring: Please be prepared! Events are outdoors and run in all weather conditions (unless the weather is a safety concern ie: winds, lightning). Please make sure all participants have appropriate clothing and footwear for all weather conditions (ie: waterproof clothing, running shoes, hiking shoes and/or boots, gloves, hats, and a change of clothes for after the activities). Inappropriate clothing and footwear may result in the participant sitting out. A more detailed packing list will be emailed prior to camp.

Lunch is not provided. Please ensure your child has a lunch (nut free), snacks and water for the day.

Electronics and Personal Toys: Electronics and personal toys are prohibited at Wild & Immersive camps. If it is necessary for the child to have an electronic for safety reasons (ie: a cell phone), it must stay in the child’s bag during camp activities.

Arriving for Camp: Drop off and pick up will be at the main gate area of the Malcolm Knapp Research Forest. When arriving, please park in the public parking lot and walk down the main road approximately 100m towards the Wild & Immersive Cabin. The Wild & Immersive check in area will be to the left of the main road.

Early Arrivals/ Late Departures: Camps start at 8:30am and ends at 3:00pm. Please make arrangements for your child to be dropped off and picked up at these times. Children may arrive 5 minutes prior to camp start, but there is no supervision past 3:00pm. Children picked up late (past 3:10pm) will be charged for staffing supervision costs.

Participation and Behavior: The safety of each individual at the camp is of the utmost importance. Any behavior of the registrant that places him/herself or others at risk may result in the registrant’s immediate dismissal from the program. If dismissed from the program, the parent/guardian accepts any costs associated with the dismissal. No refund will be granted for any registrant who is dismissed from a camp. Refunds will not be granted to registrants who refuse to participate in the programs.
