Refund Policy

As a non-profit facility, the Elmira & District Curling Club (EDCC) relies on membership fees as its primary source of revenue to fund its operations year over year. Annual operating budgets are established based on projected registrations. Many of the club activities that go into making EDCC a successful entity are the result of volunteers who oversee the business operations of the club.

Policy Statement

Once the EDCC has received and processed an applicant's registration and placed the applicant on the membership registration list, it is the EDCC's position that no membership fees will be refunded.

Exceptional circumstances impacting individual members

2.  Any registered member who decides to withdraw their registration before the start of their first night of curling may receive a full refund, minus a $50 administration fee.

3. Youth (Junior / Little Rock) curlers who are trying curling for the first time and decide they do not enjoy it may receive a full refund within the first month after the start of curling. No administrative fee will be incurred.
