|
Once you registration has been confirmed no
refunds will be given for any reason
(cancellation, weather, flight delays, etc.).
It
will be your responsibility to find a suitable
replacement if you are unable to attend the
event.
Participants may wish to consider purchasing
trip
cancellation/interruption insurance through the
National office to mitigate any loss.
|
|
Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!
Cancellation Policy
If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Calgary Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
