September Camp Terms & Conditions

• Conditions of Enrollment, Cancellation & Refunds

  The following shall apply to all enrollments and fees for September Camp:

  1. The Taylor Statten Camps makes every effort to place September campers in accommodation/cabins they request. However, there is no guarantee of a cabin placement, or placement in a particular section, regardless of any request you may make. We do not accept registrations that are contingent on cabin requests.

  2. Registration through this website does not constitute formal acceptance of a guaranteed place at September Camp. In consideration of your online registration, the camp directors will consider your application and may make some background checks or take up references to verify any information provided about you and your child(ren), if applicable. Your attention to our Privacy Policy on how we collect and use your (and your children’s) personal information for this purpose is recommended. The camp directors reserve the right to refuse registration for any reason. A formal acceptance is emailed to you upon consideration by our Directors of your online registration.

  3. The applicant listed on this application (referred to in this agreement as the applicants) agrees to pay a 50% deposit of the full fee at the time of registration and the remainder of any fees owed (including any tuck or incidentals purchased) upon check-out from September Camp and agrees to pay interest on all overdue fees at the rate of 24% per annum determined daily, calculated and payable monthly not in advance.

  4. Any cancellation of enrolment must be in writing. Emails are accepted. If cancellation occurs on or after 1 July 2024 the 50% deposit will be forfeited. Cancellations or reductions in enrollment made prior to 1 July 2024 will incur a $100 administration fee. Reductions in enrollment made on or after 1 July 2024 may be possible, but cannot be used as alternative to avoid cancellation fees. Please contact the Business Office if you need to reduce the number of nights of your stay on or after 1 July 2024. Minimum stay requirements, as specified, always apply and cannot be waived. . Cancellation or curtailment of your booking once you have checked in at Canoe Lake will result in the full amount being charged for your entire stay.

  5. Extensions to your stay may be possible subject to capacity restrictions and upon application to the Business Office. Extra fees will be payable. 6. No fee refund will be made for applicants arriving late or leaving early, for any reason.

The applicant further acknowledges that attendance and/or participation at camp involves risk and hazards incidental thereto, including allergic reactions, all of which are assumed by the applicant and his/her family. The applicant hereby waives, releases, absolves and agrees to indemnify and save harmless The Taylor Statten Camp Company Ltd. and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents of any and all liability arising from attendance and/or participation of the camp program (unless solely as a result of the camp’s willful neglect or willful default.)

• Waiver and Release of Liability

  I acknowledge that attendance and/or participation at overnight camp involves risk and hazards incidental thereto, including allergic reactions and Covid-19, all of which are assumed by the parent. I further recognize that there is an element of risk in taking part in outdoor activities. I’m also aware of the risks and dangers inherent in lake water swimming, water sports, land sports, horseback riding, high ropes, archery, wilderness canoe tripping, hiking/portaging, living in a natural and rustic surrounding, communal living conditions, eating new foods not tried before and the risks associated with ground and air transportation. I am also aware that my child(ren) will be sharing a camper cabin and/or tent with other children of a similar age, that although staff supervision will always be nearby, direct visual supervision 24 hours per day is not possible.

  Knowing of the inherent risks (such as, but not limited to, exposure, animal bites, Covid-19, equipment failure, hazards of the road, allergies, trails, changing weather conditions, forest fires, personal interaction, etc.) and the rigors required of said activities, I certify that my child(ren) is fully capable of participating in the camp program and activities.

  On behalf of my child(ren) I accept for use, as is, any equipment provided in good condition and accept full responsibility for care of equipment while in my child(ren)’s possession.

  I release and hold harmless for whatever reason, including negligence, THE TAYLOR STATTEN CAMP COMPANY LIMITED, its officers, employees, directors, shareholders, sponsors, and agents from any action related to these risks and dangers and any and all liability arising from my or my child(ren)’s attendance and/or participation in the camp program. These terms shall serve as a release and assumption of risk for my heirs, and all members of my family.

  I HAVE READ THE ABOVE WAIVER AND RELEASE AND BY ELECTRONICALLY SUBMITTING THIS APPLICATION I AGREE IT IS MY INTENTION TO EXEMPT AND RELIEVE THE TAYLOR STATTEN CAMP COMPANY LIMITED FROM LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR WRONGFUL DEATH BY NEGLIGENCE OR ANY OTHER CAUSE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
