POLICIES
Age requirement: Participation limited to those 18 years of age and older.
COVID 19 Vaccination Policy: Big Jersey is now requiring that all camp attendees be vaccinated against the COVID 19 virus—and provide proof of vaccination upon request—as a prerequisite to camp attendance. Please note this policy reflects Big Jersey’s commitment to the health and safety of all of its campers and staff.
Cancellation/Refund Policy: We are able to refund 50% for cancellations made before August 1, 2023. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide refunds for cancellations made on or after August 1, 2023. Please note this General Policy reflects the difficulty of producing events that do require a given number of participants in order to plan for and to succeed. However, if there is a camper who is able to take your spot, we will work to substitute them and, in that circumstance, provide a refund.
Sick Policy: If you feel sick or unwell, do not come to camp. Call us and explain the situation and we will apply your tuition toward an upcoming similar camp. No one will forfeit their tuition fee for making the responsible decision to recuperate safely at home because they are sick. The health of all campers and staff is paramount.
