Should cancellations occur, Camp staff will contact the parent/guardians prior to the camp and refunds or transfer will be given. Typically this will occur seven to ten days before the camp begins however this is subject to change if needed. MJCC also reserves the right to dismiss a camper whose behavior violates our behavior agreement, in which case no refund is given. Any changes or cancellations will be charged a $20 fee, per camp, for vacation camps. Cancellations made within 14 days of the start of camp will not be refunded.
