In all programs offered by the Patriots' Path Council, BSA, a great deal of planning and purchasing takes place well in advance. These plans include, but are not limited to, staff, food, program materials, patches and awards, rental and purchase of equipment, and in some cases, items of clothing such as T-shirts that are given as part of a program fee.
When an individual or group make a reservation for an activity or program, these items are included in ordering of materials and staffing for that event.
The council reserves the right to cancel programs, as attendance or weather requires.
If the council cancels a program or closes a camp, the payment/deposit can be transferred to another program/available date or returned as requested.
If you decide to cancel your reservation/do not show up and the camp is open, there will be no refund or alternate date offered.
Refunds: Individuals or groups that cancel a program reservation 30 days prior to the date of the event will receive a refund of fees paid, less a 15% administrative charge. No refunds will be made after the 30 day cancelation deadline, unless there is a medical or other emergency.
ALL CANCELATIONS MUST BE MADE IN WRITING (PAPER OR EMAIL) AND SENT TO THE PATRIOTS' PATH COUNCIL, 1 SADDLE ROAD, CEDAR KNOLLS, NJ 07927
