Exceptions for Emergencies

We understand that emergencies happen. If your child can’t attend the event due to illness, a family emergency, or another serious reason, please contact us as soon as possible. We will review each situation individually.

If we ever need to cancel event (for weather, safety, or other reasons), you’ll get a full refund — or you can choose to move your registration to a different session.

Final Decisions

All refund, transfer, or exception requests are ultimately subject to the discretion of the Group Lead Volunteer, who may approve exceptions or override standard policy when appropriate.
