My son learned about this about a year ago. He worked hard and saved up money to make the trip and pay for the camp. He convinced two of his friends to join him. Sadly, two weeks before camp, he had an accident and broke his foot - meaning that he could not ski. We notified the camp immediately, and it took them weeks and weeks to respond to our requests for a refund. Despite a waiting list for the camp, it seemed reasonable of them to keep the $500 deposit, but they have yet to agree to return the $1300 payment. Their response has so soured our impression of the organization that my son does not wish to go their next year. He will instead convince all of his friends to attend Whistler. Bottom line, watch out for cancellation policies and be sure to keep documents like letters from your doctor!
