Parent/Guardian Information
We are committed to making our program as financially accessible as possible. Sliding scale fees are designed to allow participants to choose how much they are able to pay for registration. If you are registering two students take the overall cost into account.
If you are unsure how much you should be paying, check out this graphic and read a few words about sliding scale to think about:
“When I pay more, I know that I am helping others to access the event. When I pay in the middle, I know I am helping the organizers cover costs. And when I pay at the bottom, I know I am letting my community hold me and support me. All of these are wonderful and acceptable ways of participating.”
“Please be mindful that if you purchase a price at the lowest end of the scale when you can truthfully afford the higher ticket prices, you are limiting access to those who truly need the gift of financial flexibility. Being honest with yourself and your financial situation when engaging with sliding scale practices grows strong and sustainable communities.” (Source: Sliding Scale Why, How, and Sorting Out Who)

Vancouver Unitarians strives to be inclusive and accessible to everyone. If the lowest end of the camp fee still presents a barrier to your participation we provide camperships which may include before and after care, public transportation, and lunch. Applications will be processed on an ongoing, first-come, first-served basis as long as funds are available. A deposit in good faith of an amount you can afford is requested to hold your spot. The deposit will be refunded if available campership funds do not meet your needs and you decide to release the spot. Once you accept the campership, the deposit is nonrefundable.
Cancellation and Refund Policy
All requests for refunds must be submitted to the Program Director, by e-mail (kiersten@vanu.ca). Requests for refunds receive a full refund less a 15% administrative fee per registrant. If less than one week’s notice is given 50% of the fee will be refunded. If notice is given on or after the start date of the program, no refund will be given.
Cancellations due to a COVID-19 diagnosis or medical advice to self-isolate before camp starts will be refunded in full. If Vancouver Unitarians need to cancel the camp due to Public Health order or new restriction guidelines we cannot meet, then all campers will receive a full refund of fees paid.
