Cancellations
Spokane County may need to cancel swim lessons due to unforeseen circumstances such as inclement weather, water quality or mechanical difficulties. For this reason, Fridays shall be held in reserve to provide "make-up" swim lessons. The County will be prepared to offer up to one additional class session (make-up lesson) per person per week, regardless of the number of cancellations that may have occurred. Every effort shall be taken to provide the make-up lesson at the same time of day as the lesson that was cancelled. Swim instructors may vary. Make-up lessons shall ONLY be offered in the event classes are cancelled by Spokane County due to unforeseen circumstances.

If notification of a cancellation is received at least 14 calendar days prior to the start of the session, a $5 cancellation fee per transaction will be retained by Spokane County and all other funds shall remain in the participant's account for future use with Spokane County Parks swim lessons.
If notification of a cancellation is received less than 14 calendar days prior to the start of the session, a $5 cancellation fee per transaction will be retained by Spokane County, and the remaining funds shall be divided as follows: 1st half shall be retained by Spokane County, and the 2nd half shall remain in the participant's account for future use with Spokane County Parks swim lessons.
If notification of cancellation is received the day of or after the start of the session, Spokane County shall retain 100% of the funds.
