                              Program Guide

Included   in this Issue:   Adult and Youth Athletics, Community Center Programs for Preschool, Youth, Teen, Adult,
                             Track Out Camps, The Halle Cultural Arts Center, Special Events

HOW TO REGISTER FOR PROGRAMS:
 Pre-registration is required for most programs offered by Apex Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources. The first two weeks of each
 registration period is limited to Apex residents only. A resident is defined as an individual who resides within the established corporate
 limits of the Town as defined by the Apex Planning & Community Development Department. Waiting lists are available for most programs,
 with Apex residents receiving priority. See individual pages of the Program Guide for program registration dates. You may register
 online at www.apexnc/peakconnect, in person, or by mail (make checks payable to: Town of Apex). For Athletic Program registration
 dates see individual program descriptions. To avoid long lines and discourage overnight assembly, the first day of registration for both
 residents and non-residents will be administered by a lottery system promptly at 8:45am at the Community Center. Those in line will
 be given the opportunity to randomly draw a number and line up according to their number. Anyone arriving after 8:45am will go to the
 back of the line. Registration will begin promptly at 9am based on this system. This is for instructional programs, camps and individual
 youth athletic registration only and does not apply to adult team registration deadlines. One person may register only one family at a time.
 REFUND POLICY:
 Full Refunds. Registration fees are 100% refundable when programs and events are canceled or adjusted by the Apex Parks,
 Recreation, and Cultural Resources Department. The Director of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Resources shall have the authority
 to make decisions on all requests not specifically covered herein.
 Refunds/ Withdrawals/Transfers
 1. Withdrawal 10 Calendar days or more in advance. A participant requesting to withdraw from a class must provide a written
 request at least 10 calendar days in advance of the scheduled start date of the program or tryouts for an athletic league. The participant
 will receive the full refund of fees minus a $5.00 processing fee. No refunds will be issued when the amount is less than $6.00.
 2. Withdrawal less than 10 Calendar days in advance. A participant requesting a refund in writing, less than 10 calendar days prior
 to the scheduled start date of the program or tryouts for an athletic league, will receive a 75% refund of the fees if the participant can
 be replaced from the waiting list. If there is no waiting list for the program or athletic league no refund will be issued.
 3. Withdrawal after First meeting of a program/First regular season game. A participant requesting to withdraw on the day of or
 after the first meeting of any program, or the first regular season game of the affected league, will not be issued a refund.
 4. Transfer Request. A participant requesting to transfer from one class date to another, within the same program and
 registration period, must do so in writing at least 10 calendar days or more prior to the scheduled start date of the
 program.
 5. Adult Team Withdrawals. Refunds for adult athletic programs requiring “team” registration will be issued based on
 policies and procedures covering that particular program and are not subject to #s 1, 2, 3, and 4 above.
 6. Youth Sports League Withdrawals. If there is a tryout for the athletic league, a full refund minus a $5.00 processing fee will be
 issued if a written request to withdraw is made prior to the tryout day for the league. If the written request is made after the tryout for
 the athletic league, a 75% refund will be issued only if the participant can be replaced from the waiting list.
 7. Ticketed Events. All ticket sales are final. Refunds and withdrawals are not permitted.
 8. Payment By Check. Effective 7/21/17, no refund requests should be processed for payments by check until at least 10 business
 days after the date of the receipt.
 Medical and Scholastic Exceptions
 A full refund of all fees paid, minus a $5.00 processing fee, will be made for Athletic and Non-Athletic Programs only if:
        1)     Prior to the first meeting of a program or the first game of the regular season the participant requests a refund in
                 writing including a written excuse from a licensed medical doctor indicating that the participant should not
                participate due to medical concerns or physical limitations.
        2)     Prior to the first meeting of a program or the first game of the regular season the participant requests a refund in
                writing including written verification that the participant has been included in either a Middle School, High School,
                 or College program that prohibits participation in recreational programs. Written verification can include a letter
                from the team coach, an official team roster from the school, or other school document indicating the school policy
                which prohibits the registrant’s participation.
 SENIOR TRIPS (Please Note: Senior Program information is available in a separate publication)
 1. If a participant requests a refund in writing prior to the registration deadline, a full refund minus a $5.00 processing
 fee will be issued. 2. If a participant requests a refund in writing after the registration deadline, and 48 hours prior to trip
 departure, a 75% refund will be issued if the participant can be replaced from the waiting list. If there is not a waiting list for
 the program then no refund will be issued. 3. If 48 hours prior to the trip departure, a written excuse from a licensed
 medical doctor is provided indicating that the participant should not participate due to medical concerns or physical
 limitations, a partial refund will be issued after deducting expenses incurred by the Town of Apex / Apex Parks, Recreation, and
 Cultural Resources Department such as prepaid admission fees, tickets, deposits, and a $5.00 processing fee. 4. For situations where
 non-refundable deposits and admission fees must be paid in advance by the Town, no refunds will be given to participants who cancel.
