Subject: Urgent confirmation of Camp Wildfire accommodation
Please confirm in writing the precise accommodation that will be supplied for my Camp Wildfire booking. My booking is for [ACCOMMODATION TYPE] with [BED CONFIGURATION]. Please confirm: 1. The name and type of the structure. 2. Its approximate dimensions and internal layout. 3. Whether it is the same accommodation shown in the booking photographs. 4. Whether any '4-rig tent' or other alternative structure may be substituted. 5. Whether I will be contacted before arrival if the booked accommodation is unavailable. 6. What options will be offered if the accommodation booked cannot be supplied. As the event is imminent, I would appreciate a written response before travelling.
