Event Refund Policy
Once a participant is registered for an event, the qualifications listed below will be used to determine if a refund can be given when a participant is unable to attend the event. It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to notify Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland in writing of a cancellation more than 14 days prior to the program start date. Refunds are given in the manner in which they were paid, and to the account of fee origination. Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland reserves the right to cancel any session when deemed necessary.
