The Fine Print...BROCHURE INFORMATION

Although every effort is made to ensure the contents of this brochure are correct at the time of printing, periodically misprints do occur or circumstances change. The Summerland Recreation Department reserves the right to make changes as required.

WHY GOOD COURSES GET CANCELLEDNothing ends a good course faster than everyone leaving it to the last minute to register. There is a point when the program staff check (usually one week prior to start date) the class registration. If there are not enough people registered, the class has to be cancelled. So, please register early!

CLASS SIZESafety, quality and cost are the prime considerations when determining class size.

HOLIDAYSPrograms will NOT be held on statutory holidays unless indicated otherwise.

PICTURE THIS!We often take photos of special events and recreation programs. Sometimes we display them or put them in our brochure. If you have any objections to a picture of you or your child being printed, please let us know.

CANCELLATIONSThe Parks & Recreation Department reserves the right to cancel programs. This will only be done when circumstances deem it necessary. Every effort will be made to notify participants if this should happen.
