Participant Initiated Cancelations:
- If a participant withdraws from a fee-based program 14 days prior to the start date, a full refund will be issued less a $10 processing fee.

- Participants cancelling once program has started will be provided a program credit.

YMCA Initiated Cancellations:
- All schedules, activities, classes, and/or programs may be changed or cancelled by the Y. If the Y cancels a fee-program due to low enrollment or staffing conflicts, a full refund will be provided.
