Frequently Asked Questions


Can I get a refund for a recreation program or class?
Full refunds will be gladly issued if the Parks and Recreation Office is notified before the first day of any multi-session program. A prorated refund will be issued for any requests after the first class date from the date the office is notified. Refunds for one-day activities and all bus/van trips are not possible during or after the event. Full bus trip refunds are given if substitute(s) can be found at any time before the trip date.  If substitutes cannot be found, refunds can only be given up to four weeks before the trip date. Refunds take about 3 weeks to process and are mailed to the original payer.

Why would my program be cancelled?
All programs take place assuming minimum numbers are met. If registration does not meet the stated minimum, we will cancel the program within 24 hours before it begins. In this case, participants receive a full-refund. The Friendship Center and the Parks and Recreation Department reserve the right to cancel activities.

Will I be notified if I am accepted when I mail or fax my registration?
We will be happy to notify you if a self-addressed stamped envelope is included. If not, no news is good news.
