Rescheduling and Cancellation Policy:

  • Lacawac reserves the right to reschedule, postpone, or cancel a program due to low registration (fewer than 10 attendees), weather conditions, or other circumstances beyond our control. Participants will be notified as soon as possible if changes are necessary.
  • If Lacawac cancels a paid program, participants will receive a full refund of their registration fee. If Lacawac reschedules or postpones a paid program, tickets will automatically be honored for the new date. If a ticket holder cannot attend the rescheduled date, they may choose to donate their registration fee to support Lacawac’s nonprofit mission, or receive a credit toward a future Lacawac program.
  • As a nonprofit organization, Lacawac incurs credit card processing fees for both registrations and refunds, which reduces funds available for programs. Thank you for understanding and for supporting our mission.
  • No action is needed if you are able to attend on the new date. We encourage participants to check their email and Lacawac’s website and social media channels for updates, especially as weather conditions may impact programs.
