Registration 

Registration can be made in person (cash, check, or credit card: Visa or Master Card.) Charge payment can be made over the phone. A 2.25% transaction fee is applied. Full payment is required at registration for trips. The exception to this policy is when a deposit is required for a trip. Spaces cannot be held. When registering for a casino trip your birth date is required for the casino manifest. Upon registering, whether it is in person or on the phone, your receipt will be your confirmation. A complete list of all names will be stored in our computer and you will be checked off prior to boarding the bus.

Trip Refund Policy

 In the past, we have been experiencing several lastminute refund requests for various day and evening trips. Although we realize that emergencies do arise, we need you to understand that we have confirmed contracts with vendors, thus the Village is NOT entitled to a refund. Because of these contracts, NO REFUNDS will be given for any trip unless there is a waiting list and a replacement for your reservation can be found or you can find a replacement for your reservation. If this is the case, you must notify the Recreation office immediately. Your cooperation in this matter is appreciated. For refunds, please allow 4-6 weeks for processing

Deadline

 For some trips, in order to secure the best group rate on tickets, we have to have a deadline on the last day we can sell tickets. Please note deadlines and dates.

Buses

 For your comfort, we try to secure motor coaches when possible. We generally use mini buses for short trips and family outings. Because of the lack of outside waiting facilities, we recommend that you do not come to the bus until ten (10) minutes before leave time. No one will be allowed to board the bus until a supervisor is present. PLEASE NOTE: If you fail to return to the bus at the scheduled time you are responsible for your own transportation home.

Bus Seating 

Bus seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Patrons should get in the bus line upon arriving at Village Commons. To accommodate everyone, we reserve the right to seat you on the bus. Seats cannot be saved. We ask that patrons sit in the same seat both to and from our destination. Anyone requiring special assistance or accommodation MUST indicate their needs at registration.

Waiting Lists

 Waiting lists will be taken for all trips. If additional tickets can be secured and another bus can be filled, we will accommodate those waiting. Once called, you will have a maximum of 48 hours to register in person or by phone or we continue to call the next person on the wait list.
