Refunds

It is necessary for the RecKids Camp Director to properly plan for the number of campers scheduled for each session.
With this in mind, the following refund policy has been developed by UDCR Administration to accommodate our camper families:

  • Refund request made 30 days or more prior to the first day of the session will be refunded in full minus a $10 administrative fee. 
  • Refund request made 29 to 11 days prior to the first day of the session will be refunded at 50% minus a $10 administrative fee. 
  • Refund request made 10 days or fewer prior to the first day of the session will not be given.  Illness, injury, or other extraneous circumstances documented by a physician or accredited third-party representative may be directed to the Camp Director for consideration of a refund.  These requests will be reviewed on a case by case basis and may or may not be awarded.
