Refunds

Adventure Programs provide an environment where participants are dependent on one another for an enjoyable sport experience. If a participant withdraws after registration has closed (and once the schedule has been created and published), this negatively impacts the program.
  • Any registrant that withdraws prior to a program’s registration deadline day (by 11:59 pm MST) will be issued a full (100%) refund. 
  • If a registrant withdraws after the program registration deadline, no (0%) refund will be issued.
  • A full (100%) refund of programs or services fees will be issued for an Adventure Program cancellation. Registrants will be informed of cancellations as soon as possible. Cancellations may occur due to low enrollment, limited staff availability, or facility closures 
  • If the original payment was made by credit card or debit card, the refund will be issued to the same card type used for the original payment. If the original payment was by cash or cheque, the refund will be issued by cheque. This will be mailed to you 3-8 weeks from the time the refund is requested.
