Note: This program is for adults and children of all ages. All children must be registered and accompanied by a registered adult. Pre-registration will close at 12 pm the day before the program, or whenever the program sells out. If the program is sold out, you may register to be added to the waitlist (you will not be charged), and you will be notified if a spot opens up. This program will take place almost entirely outdoors. Please dress for the weather. In the event of inclement weather, this program will be cancelled and participants will be notified of their refund options.
Cancellation Policy: Cancellation requests received at least 7 days before the scheduled program are eligible for a 50% refund of the total registration cost, not including the credit card processing fee.
