Felters' Fling 2011 Pricing and Refund Policy
Deposit
A 20% deposit is due at the time of registration and no registration will be guaranteed until the deposit is received. The deposit must be calculated against the "total costs" shown on the registration form, including any housing and meals costs at Snow Farm and may be paid by credit or debit card, check or money order (see registration form).
THIS 20% DEPOSIT IS NON-REFUNDABLE. It will be forfeited by the registrant if you cancel your reservation at any time and for any reason after it is paid. You should seriously consider purchasing travel insurance from a reputable third-party provider if you would find loss of this deposit unacceptable.
Full Payment
The remaining balance (80%) of the total cost of the conference is due NO LATER THAN July 8, 2011. After that date, your reservation may be given away to another interested participant with NO refund of your deposit. This 80% balance is refundable through August 10, 2011 ONLY IF (a) you notify Black Sheep Designs in writing (including e-mail) of your cancellation and such notification is RECEIVED no later than August 10, 2011, AND, (b) we are successful in finding a replacement for you from our wait list. Any such refund will NOT include the 20% deposit.
Materials Fee
A materials fee will be due and payable on the first day of each session for the class you are taking. The fee will vary by class and is payable directly to the instructor. Anyone canceling before a class begins shall NOT be liable for the materials fee. However, the full fee is due for anyone who begins a class, whether or not they complete it.
Other Costs You May Incur
Anyone staying off campus is responsible for their own housing arrangements. Any deposit and refund policies for such off campus accommodations are strictly between the registrant and the independent provider and not the responsibility of Black Sheep Designs. Similarly, any travel arrangements are strictly the responsibility of the registrant. Especially if you are flying to the area, check your airline's refund policies and consider travel cancellation insurance. DO NOT BOOK a non-refundable flight UNTIL you have been confirmed as a registered participant in Felters' Fling 2011!
