This policy applies to skaters enrolled in StarSkate/Competitive Skate sessions, and not those enrolled in the CanSkate program.
Policy
Refund requests must be submitted in writing to the Executive Director and accompanied by a dated doctor’s note outlining the functional limitations of the skater. Requests for refund will be considered on a case-by-case basis and will only pertain to the program fee portion of the account. A personal credit will be issued, which will be retained on the skater’s account for one calendar year from the date issued.*
