Pioneer Women’s Weekend Cancellation Policy
- If the camp is required to reduce enrolment in registration for any reason:
-
- Once we have reached our weekly capacity for participants/staff onsite, a waitlist will be set up and the applicant will be placed on it. If there are sessions that are not full and that the participant is eligible to attend, your registration can be moved to one of those sessions.
-
- In the event that a camp event is cancelled for any reason, the camp will issue a refund for the value of the fees of the unexpired term.
- If parent/guardian/participant chooses to withdraw their event registration, regular cancellation policies will be in effect.
-
- If you choose to cancel more than two weeks prior to the start of the event, you will receive the below refunds:
- Cancellations will receive a full refund less a cancellation administration fee of $50/person/retreat/event.
-
- If a cancellation occurs less than two weeks before the start of an event, there will be NO REFUND except for medical reasons confirmed with a note from a doctor. In that case, you will get a full refund less the cancellation administration fee of $50/person/retreat/event.
- No refund will be made for dismissals due to disciplinary action, late arrivals, or early departures.
- If a participant is unwell while at camp, and it is determined that withdrawal from the event is required, the camp will credit the participant the value of fees for the unexpired term. Depending on availability, the participant can use their credit to rebook the participant in an alternate current session when they are back to full health. If this is not possible, the camp will issue a refund for the value of the unexpired term or credit the participant for a future event or camp session.
InterVarsity’s Pioneer Camp Alberta cannot guarantee to be a nut/peanut free environment. We do seek to reduce the risk of exposure and therefore do not use or serve peanuts, peanut products or tree nuts on camp property. Nuts or products containing nuts will not be available in our Tuck Shop(s). However, the food we purchase may contain traces of nut products. Please do not bring any food items with you to camp that contain nut products (this includes chocolate bars, granola bars, etc.). Any items containing nut products will be removed from the camp.

Meet our Speaker:
She is a speaker, entrepreneur, non-profit founder, wife, mother, friend and Jesus follower.
Life, including significant loss, happened to Tamara.
How God showed up gave Tamara insights to share with you, to fortify your hope, as we gather as women.

Meet our Worship Leader:
Candice, her husband Enoch, 6-year-old daughter Rosemary, and 2-year-old son Shepard now enjoy jamming together and are even co-writing songs! She loves creating delicious food to share among friends, being outdoors and having coffee or just a cup of cold water ready for anyone who drops by.
Through a journey of a stressful career, health struggles and postpartum anxiety, she has had to come to know the Lord as ‘Hope’ in a very real way.
