Refund Policy

Regrettably, if a minimum number of registrants are not met, we may have to cancel or combine classes due to low registration. These decisions are made prior to the program start date. Please register early to avoid disappointment. A 100% refund is granted when we cancel a program.

Extended illness/injury: In cases of extended illness or injury, a prorated refund or credit may be granted upon provision of a medical note.

Missed classes: Classes missed due to sickness, vacation or other reasons will not be refunded or credited.

Refunds: A refund will be issued for camps if we receive withdrawal notification seven (7) days in advance. Withdrawal from programs and lessons requires 72 hours notice prior to course start date. If less than the seven days or 72 hours notice is given, no refund or credit will be issued.


Financial Assistance Program

RDN Recreation and Parks works with the Society of Organized Services to provide financial assistance for low income residents in the Oceanside area wanting to participate in RDN recreation programs.

  • Society of Organized Services provides funding for 0-18 years. Call 250-248-2093.
  • RDN provides funding for 0-5 years and 15yrs+. Call 250-248-3252

The process is simple and confidential and must be done in advance of registering to avoid disappointment. Confidentiality is assured.

Request for Inclusive Supports

Looking to discuss support needs for yourself or a family member attending an RDN camp or program? 

Contact Rob Brownlee, Inclusion Coordinator at 250-248-3252. Support is subject to staff availability.

If support is arranged privately to assist someone with a disability during a swim or skate session, the assistant is admitted at no charge. It is expected that the assistant will be present alongside the participant for the duration of the activity.
