      What Happens If You Cancel a Registration

      While many events do not have a cap on the number of members that can attend, when an event has a limited number of spots that are available it will be stated and include a reference to the cancellation procedure as follows:

      “If you register and then have to cancel for any reason there may be a cost associated with the cancellation. You can view the Cancellation Policy and Procedures here (link).”

      "Cancellations made less than 48 hours before an event will incur a cancellation penalty.”

      Each event posting will list a date by which you must cancel if you can’t attend the event after registering. You may cancel thru the website up until this date. Cancellations after this date should be made directly to the event host and we request that members cancel as soon as they know that they cannot attend. Last minute cancellations cause real difficulties for the event host.

      Once you sign up for an event you will receive an email before the event confirming your registration and an additional email notification approximately one week prior to the event.

      Each event also will identify if there are special considerations for the event that members should be aware of before deciding to register such as it being an outdoor activity, lots of walking, etc.

      Our bylaws include a statement that “All members are expected to exercise diligence and make sound judgments in deciding which events to attend. All members should take into consideration their health limitations.”

      For outdoor events members should be prepared for inclement weather and recognize their own limitations.
