-Refunds are not issued under any circumstances, including cancellations, postponements, weather conditions, or changes in event details.
-Store Credit In place of refunds, customers will receive a store credit equal to the amount paid. This credit is valid for up to 12 months (1 year) from the original payment date.

We don't want you or us to be in that situation which is why we have you sign and initial on all of our safety rules so that you can be the trained operator.
