Refunds:
Planning for NOAC is a very detailed process. Payments for the conference fee to National, transportation, and related costs are made many months before the actual trip and are often non-refundable. If for some reason you find that you are no longer able to attend NOAC, notice must be made in writing via email to: noac@witauchsoman.org by December 31, 2026. We appreciate your understanding.
Additional spending money is suggested for special NOAC items sold at the NOAC Trading Post. You can also pre-order online after April 1st via: tradingpost.oa-bsa.org
NOTE: All participants will be required to submit forms and payments on time or you will be removed from the contingent and your deposit will not be refunded.
