HOLIDAY CLOSINGS IN THE EVENT OF BAD WEATHER

Authority and Government locations are running.
To check for weather related cancelations, visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks or call the Park
Authority inclement weather information line: 703-324-8661. • Cancelation information is also communicated via local TV and radio stations and Fairfax County government cable channels 16 and 21. • Cancelations for classes held at vendor locations are made independently. Please call the location where the class is being held. • For tour cancelation information, call the tours hotline, 703-324-8687.
REFUNDS
• FCPA will automatically post a full credit to your account when a class or program is canceled in its entirety. If the FCPA cancels individual meetings due to inclement weather or other circumstances, your account will be credited at the end of the program session for any classes not made up. • FCPA will issue a full refund when a class or program is changed by FCPA, and the change makes it impossible for the customer to continue with the class.
When a customer cancels a registration, the following fees apply per registration: Classes
• Request received 14 or more days prior to the start date - full refund. • Request received 13 or fewer days prior to the start date - $15 processing fee applied. • Request received on class start date - refund minus cost of one class and $15 processing fee. • Request received after start date - prorated refund based on number of classes and $15 processing fee. • Requests for refunds must be submitted prior to the end of the session. • Refunds or class credits are not issued for missed individual class meetings.
