CANCELLATION POLICY

Due to binding contracts required to secure the seminar site the refund policy is stringently applied. Because the seminar is significantly subsidized, the registration fee does not reflect the cost committed to the hotel property. Please understand that refunds therefore cannot be adjusted. Exception: If another registrant fills the space a full refund will be issued.

Cancellation received by December 19 = Full Refund
Cancellation received December 20 - January 6:
Single = $350 Refund
Commuter = $150 Refund
Cancellation received after January 6 = No Refund
