Registration & Refund Policy
Holiday Nature Camp Fees are due at least one week prior to the start of the Session. Prior registration is required but there is NO Registration Fee for Holiday Nature Camp. NO refunds or make-up days available.
Because this is a small-scale program ran by biologist and independent educators, capacity is very limited. A waitlist is available but child must be pre-registered, so that in the event of a cancellation, your child can join immediately.
Location
Meeting locations vary, please contact us to find out the location for the Holiday you’re interested in.
