Registration Requirements

A 50% deposit is required at the time of registration. The balance is due 30 days before the scheduled scout event. A 50% refund will be given should you need to cancel with at least ten business days’ notice. No refunds will be given after that date. All programs require at least ten scouts. Failure to make the final payment will result in loss of registration, and no refund will be given. VASSC reserves the right to modify age grouping based on reservations to enhance the program quality.

  • Two adults are required to be with your unit during your overnight stay. Due to space restrictions and fire code regulations, only one adult will be permitted in the classroom during the program.
  • A complete participant roster is required with final payment (30 days before the scheduled event). The roster form will be sent with your confirmation letter and gather pertinent information on your scouts, including names, ages, grades, and food allergies. We will not accept additional names after the roster is submitted. Space is limited.
