Visiting Gardens is a self-funded committee and therefore cannot cover any trip costs in the event that a member needs to cancel. Due to advance scheduling of visiting gardens trips and determining costs accordingly, a cancellation policy is in effect to ensure that trip costs will be covered once a commitment has been made by a member. Payment due dates and cancellation policies for each trip will be specified at the time of sign-up and in any further correspondence related to the trip. If a member cannot attend a trip for which she has paid, she has the option to find a replacement from the trip waitlist (or otherwise) for reimbursement or forfeit any monies paid up to that point in time.
