SO SCRAPPY POLICIES

RETREAT DEPOSITS AND PAYMENTS
All retreats require a $50 non-refundable non-transferable deposit to hold your coveted spot at our crops.  If you are unable to make it after you sign up, sell your spot to a lucky friend.

If you, for any reason, need to cancel or wish to transfer your payments for a SO scrappy Scrapbooking and Events retreat, you are responsible for contacting us. Cancellation fee is equal to your required deposit ($50-$75 depending on retreat). Your required deposit will be kept as the cancellation fee. Deposits are NON REFUNDABLE and NON TRANSFERABLE.  The date we receive the cancellation is the actual cancellation date. You will receive a reply by email from SO scrappy confirming cancellation.  This will serve as your cancellation date.

If you do cancel or transfer to another retreat you forfeit any prizes or goody bags from the retreat you canceled.

If you paid in full, you may transfer the amount LESS your deposit to another retreat within that year only.  No REFUNDS will be issued whatsoever.  A 45 day notice is required. 

All balances must be paid within 45 days of your event.  You will receive an invoice for your balance approximately 8 weeks before the retreat and we appreciate timely payments. 

Our expenses continue during the event even if you are not able to attend.  We have to pay for your space even if you aren’t there.   SO scrappy will do our best to fill your spot with a person on our wait list.  If that is possible, you will be refunded the fee less the $50 deposit.  We ask that if you do sell your spot to a friend, please just email us at soscrappyevents@gmail.com to let us know who will be attending in your place. 

CANCELLATIONS

SO scrappy reserves the right to cancel an event due to unforeseen circumstances and is not responsible for any associated cost (such as travel) incurred by the registrants.  In case of cancellation by SO scrappy, full refunds will be issued promptly.  This does not apply to anyone who cannot make it due to their own unforeseen circumstances.  If inclement weather is happening in your area that prevents you from attending one of our scrapbook retreats associated with SO scrappy we cannot be held responsible.

If the location where one of SO scrappy is hosting the retreat has inclement weather and the hotel has to cancel we will certainly arrange for a different date for the retreat.  

NOTE: If the hotel does not close then the retreat is still scheduled and will continue. No refunds issued or credited unless the event is not on.

ADDITIONAL RETREAT / EVENT POLICIES

No animals allowed as the hotel has a strict no pet policy.   

No alcohol, drugs, smoking or vaping inside the convention center or event space.  Disorderly conduct, drunkenness, or intoxication will absolutely not be tolerated at our events.  SO scrappy reserves the right to ask anyone being disruptive, under the influence, or participating in the above to leave immediately without being refunded.  We take pride in providing a low key, relaxing, and enjoyable experience for everyone.      

No children under 13 as croppers.  We love that we can get away from the daily craziness of life and sometimes that’s our children.  We also cannot control crazy conversations that may happen and don’t want to put you on the explaining end of things! 

SO scrappy is not responsible for theft, damage or loss of any kind during our crops.  We pride ourselves on being the first in and last out of the crop room and desire to keep your property as safe as possible.  Please be sure to bring a sheet or tablecloth to cover your work space when you’re away.  Leaving valuables in the crop room is your choice and we do not take responsibility for missing items. 

SO scrappy is not responsible for any injury sustained at our crops.  Please, be careful, watch where you’re walking, and keep your nose out of your phone when you’re up and about.   Be aware of your supplies and make sure they’re kept within your crop space.  We also ask – no dancing on the tables – leave that for one of the bars in town!
