CANCELLATION & WEATHER POLICY

SPONSORSHIPS

Sponsorships are reserved on a first-come, first-serve basis. AASC reserves the right to substitute any opportunity for equal or greater value based on availability for any unforeseen circumstances.

  • The top sponsors for every event are given the first right of refusal prior to opening up to the rest of the membership.
  • The benefits of a sponsorship begin with a signed contract. AASC requires a signed contract to hold an opportunity, verbal agreement or via e-mail will not be accepted.
  • All sponsorship fees/payments are DUE IN FULL TWO WEEKS PRIOR to the event date, if sponsorship is secured after this date full payment will be required upon receiving the signed contract.
  • If for any reason, you would like to cancel your sponsorship a written notice must be provided at least 30 days prior to the event unless otherwise stated on the event contract.
  • If payment has not been received seven days prior to the event, the benefits will not be provided however 100% of the payment will still be required.

Event ATTENDANCE

Cancellations must be received in writing no later than fourteen days prior to an AASC event (this excludes Peak Awards, please see below for the Peak Awards Policy) - after this date, refunds will not be provided. Substitutions for names on tickets will always be accepted, however, AASC can't promise meal accommodations for the change. No-shows are responsible for paying the full invoice if no cancellation was communicated or it was communicated after the ten-day time period.

Weather policy

It is the policy of AASC to remain open during most periods of inclement weather; however, where extraordinary circumstances warrant, due to weather or other unforeseen business interruption, the company reserves the right to close the facility.

In the event of school closures/delays, the AASC office will follow District 11. All classes, events, and meetings scheduled prior to 10 am will be rescheduled. Members are encouraged to check their e-mail during times of inclement weather and as they will be sent any notifications regarding closure through this form of communication. 

The AASC office will make every attempt possible to let members know ahead of time of all cancellations that occur. In the event of a full office closure, we will post this on the home page of our website.
