Chamber Music for Fun Refund Policy
Participants are strongly encouraged to purchase camp insurance as a means of protecting your investment. Comprehensive benefits include coverage for camper cancelations due to illness, injury, family emergencies, or other qualifying unforeseen circumstances. You will have the opportunity to select this insurance as you complete your camp reservation. Insurance is provided by Travel Insured International via UltraCamp (our registration platform), and more information is available here: https://www.travelinsured.com/ultracamp/
Refunds are processed by the business office within 45 days of written notice to the CMFF Registrar at mikestanley@comcast.net.
- A camp reservation requires a non-refundable deposit of $100. If written notice of cancellation arrives 30 days before the first day of the camp session, all payments made, less the non-refundable $100 deposit, will be refunded.
- Requests received within 30 days prior to the start of the session are not eligible for a refund.
Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp is a small nonprofit organization which is funded primarily through earned income from camp tuition. Because our organization sustains significant administrative costs associated with managing operations, we wish to provide opportunities for those who are invested in supporting the mission and longevity of the camp. If you are in a position to donate any portion of your refund-eligible tuition to our organization, you can help to support our ability to meet year-round operating costs, maintain our scholarship funds, and ensure the future of our programs. Donations are considered tax-deductible. Please contact the Development Office at development@bluelake.org for more information.
