COVID PRECAUTIONS
Safety of our students, staff, and volunteers is our top priority. As the date of a class approaches, we will evaluate guidance and restrictions and reach out to our students if there is anything that will affect their experience. We list current COVID guidance and restrictions on the Sailing School's homepage at www.hrmm.org/sailing-school. 

CANCELLATION POLICY
Full refunds will be offered for cancellations that occur 30 days or more before a program's registration deadline (if no deadline, the first day of the program). Cancellations between 30 and 7 days will be offered a 50% refund or credit toward another class. Cancellations after the registration deadline or within 7 days of the first day of class (whichever comes first) will not be refunded.

WEATHER CONDITIONS
Our youth sailing program runs every day, regardless of the weather. We sail in light rain and a variety of wind conditions. If weather is dangerous, we will stay ashore and do chalk talks,  drills, learning games, etc. If Covid-19 prevents us meeting from indoors, and in the unlikely event we have seriously inclement weather, we will postpone for a day or half day and schedule a make-up.
