In support of a program that empowers youth to direct their personal progression and growth, Scouts Canada continually aims to improve accessibility to our properties for Scouting Groups across Canada to benefit from. When a Group reserves a facility/site, other Groups are excluded from using that facility/site at that time. Maintaining and operating quality properties is also associated with large financial investments.
With these two concepts in mind, the Scouts Canada’s Property Cancellation Policy is as follows:
| Scouts Canada Property Bookings Cancellation Policy | |
| All booking-related requests must be submitted in writing to propertybookings@scouts.ca and must include the order/registration number | |
| All Bookings |
A 20% non-refundable deposit will be required up front to secure your booking. Bookings are not confirmed/secured until the deposit payment is received. Some reservations with a value of $100.00 or less may require payment in full at the time of booking. (Some exceptions apply) The 20% deposit payment is non-refundable but may be eligible to transfer to a new booking at the same property. (Some restrictions apply) Doubleknot convenience fees are non-transferrable and non-refundable, as signed off upon through the booking process. The 3% and $2 convenience fee will be applied per item added to the cart at checkout. |
