Multiple day programs will not be discounted or prorated due to inability to attend. Proration for late registration will be at the discretion of the Department Director.

REFUND POLICY

No refunds or transfers will be made after a program has started, except in the case of the participant’s illness, supported by written documentation from a physician. Credits will only be issued at the discretion of the Department Director. *Note: a $15 service charge per participant/per activity will be assessed for any participant who cancels or transfers.

AGE POLICY

Program participants must be the advertised age for a program by the first day of the program. All age requirements are set to benefit the participants and to make the instruction consistent and safe.

PERSONS REQUIRING SPECIAL ACCOMMODATIONS

Please call the Parks & Recreation Office at 240-313-2805 voice/TDD at least 10 working days prior to the activity or special event. Notification during registration (if earlier than 10 days) is preferred.

INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY/CLASS CANCELLATION

When HCC is closed, all programs held at that location are canceled. All other program locations: If weather is a concern, it is the participants responsibility to call the weather hotline for cancellation

announcements. The weather hotline is 240-313-2811.

PROGRAM CANCELLATIONS

Sometimes excellent courses with super instructors are canceled because too many people wait until the last minute to register. Our courses have to be cost-recoverable, and we need a minimum number of students enrolled before a class can run. Don’t wait! Register now for a class of your choice. The Parks & Recreation Department reserves the right to cancel, postpone or combine classes for any reason found to be necessary by the staff. If insufficient enrollment causes an activity to be canceled, participants will receive a FULL REFUND. When a class is rescheduled by our department, no refunds will be given. Please allow 2 weeks for the processing of refunds.

REGISTER EARLY!

Early program registration is encouraged because participant space is limited with each program. Registrations are accepted on a first come, first served basis. Pre-Registration is REQUIRED unless otherwise indicated. Please note, our special events are very popular and fill-up very quickly. Make sure you register early for special events in order to attend - most special events require that you have a ticket prior to the event date.
