Does anyone have Calleva's cancellation policy when they first announced that their June camps would be cancelled?

It seems like they are sending families an individual link to register for their specific week only. So maybe it won't be so over burdened


If they don't fill up with previously registered campers I wonder if they'll open it up to others?

Yeah, I did search there too, nothing.


Same here. We are registered for weeks 5-7, so I assumed they hadn’t sent anything to our week yet.

Me either. I’m getting all my info here.

I’ve been in email contact with them as recently as last week, when they must have known for sure that DC kids would not be able to attend. I specifically asked about that and they were silent, just saying that the bus stops would likely be more limited.

Since they are now cancelling, what aren’t they being held to their original cancellation policy (I.e. we get back 100% of the deposit)? And what is with their selective communication?


It sucks. DC kids can attend VA camps (if they can get in) but no transportation, even for VA residents.

The part about their refund policy I hate the most is that if you choose to just GIVE them the $150 they open up extra early access for next year.

New camps are $650/week and only open to those currently enrolled in a Calleva camp.

Not a good look Calleva, not a good look. Out of sheer luck we didn't have anything booked with them this summer, but we have in the past and would have in the future, but I won't be giving them my business again.
