Refunds

A refund fee is necessary due to transaction costs and commitments made by the camp based on the number of attendees. We try to keep it as low as possible to accommodate guests with extenuating circumstances that require them to withdraw from camp. Late cancellations impact our ability to adequately prepare for the camp, meals, volunteer positions, etc.

If notified by email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. up to 12 days before the registered program starts, we will issue a refund minus a 5% cancellation fee. If notified up to 2 days before the registered program starts, we will issue a refund minus a 35% cancellation fee. Instead of a refund, we also offer 100% credit towards future Shehaqua programs.

Instructions for "adopting" children.

If you are accepting a request to adopt another family's child:

  1. Arrange with the adoptee's family first to adopt their child for the week and decide who will register the adopted child.
  2. If you are registering the adopted child yourself, include them on your registration and specify the chaperoning individuals in your family who will look after this child.
  3. If you register an adopted child yourself, please write down their parent’s name and email in the comments section at the bottom.

If you are requesting a child to be adopted:

  1. Find and arrange a family to adopt your child for Family Camp by talking directly with the adopting family.
  2. Register your children. No more than two children can be adopted by the same family.
  3. In the appropriate section of registration for that child, specify the two chaperones in the family have arranged to adopt each child.
  4. You may pay for this child’s registration directly online. The registrar may reach out if there are any questions or clarifications with regards to adoption arrangements with the other family.

If you need help with this, contact the registrar, Laura Herbers, and she will help you arrange the adoption and invoices.
