Frequently Asked Questions

What if I need to withdrawal?

You may request to withdrawal from an activity at any time. Here's how we will process your withdrawal:

  1. Full Refund: We will gladly issue a refund for 100% of the cost of the activity charged to you provided the activity withdrawal request is received up to and including 5 business days prior to the activity start date. 
  2. Partial Refund: In the event of a medical condition that prevents a participant from participating in an activity that has already started, a partial refund will be granted with evidence of Doctors' certificate, and provided it is no later than half way through the activity program. 
  3. Account Credit (No refund): If the withdrawal request is received with 4 or less days before the activity start date, we will gladly credit your account, less a $25 administrative fee, with the credit to be used by the family, in full, to the end of the next calendar year.
  4. No Account Credit or Refund: If the withdrawal request is received after the activity has begun, and no medical condition is present (see above, #2), no account credit or refund will be issued.
All refund requests must be made in person at the Stratford Agriplex, 357 McCarthy Road, Monday through Friday from 8:30am - 12pm, and 1 - 4:30pm, or by calling 519-271-4310 during the same business hours.

If your activity is cancelled, we will notify you. Your options may be:
