SCHOLARSHIPS. Open Way Sanghas provides a $50 scholarship. If a payment plan or additional scholarships are requested, please request in the comment section below, and we will forward your request to the local sangha retreat liaison.

DANA/DONATION FOR TEACHER: By tradition, Dharma teachers do not charge for their services and the retreat cost does not include teacher dana. For regularly employed participants, we suggest $100.00, less if conditions are not favorable at this time and more is appreciated if conditions allow. Dana is not a requirement but is always greatly appreciated. There will be a Dana Box at the retreat for contributions.

CANCELLATION POLICY: Cancellations received BEFORE SEPTEMBER 5th will be granted a full refund, less a $10 cancellation fee. If you cancel after SEPTEMBER 12th, you will receive NO refund because we will have already turned in our numbers, and the camp will charge us for you whether you attend or not. EXCEPTIONS: If we fill your spot, we will do our best to refund your portion.

MAIL A CHECK: If you prefer to send a paper check rather than use Paypal: Please write a check to Open Way and mail it to Gina Garlie 810 3rd Ave. E. Kalispell, MT 59901. Please note, that if you include Dana in the registration, please indicate and we will send it to the Dharma Teacher.
