Council High Adventure and Jamboree Refund Policy

 

REFUND POLICY: Due to commitments made by the Black Warrior Council, the policy of the

Council’s High Adventure Committee is that the first $250.00 deposit made to attend a Council

sponsored High Adventure activity, including participation in a National Jamboree, is nonrefundable. If a

participant drops out and is unable to attend, any payment made in excess of the $250.00 non-

refundable deposit may be transferred to a new participant less any financial commitments up to that

point which are non-refundable (such as airfare, etc.).

 

REQUEST TO TRANSFER FEE: For those that request, by January 1st of the year of the activity,

to transfer fees paid from one High Adventure trip to another, e.g.: Philmont to SeaBase, the

amount transferred will be limited to one-half of the paid fee, exclusive of the $250.00 nonrefundable deposit.

 

REFUND FOR MEDICAL CONDITIONS AND FAMILY EMERGENCIES: If a participant needs to

drop out due to a medical condition or family emergency, they will receive a refund in the

amount of 50% of the total amount paid less the $250.00 non-refundable deposit.

 

REFUND PROCESS: Approved refunds will be issued during October of the year of the

scheduled activity when all accounts are closed or after we receive credits for the event.

 

 

REQUESTS FOR REFUNDS SHOULD BE SUBMITTED TO THE COUNCIL PROGRAM DIRECTOR:
