Notice of Risk & Refund Policy

Notice of Risk

An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present, including NWC in-person events. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease and you should evaluate your own risk in determining whether to attend any public event including NWC in-person events. As a condition of NWC in-person participation, you will be required to abide by all current facility rules, posted instructions, and protocols while on premise at an NWC event, which may be periodically revised in accordance with public health guidance or requirements.

We appreciate your cooperation as we strive to make the participant experience as safe as possible for all. Although preventative measures set forth by the facility are intended to help reduce the spread of COVID-19, we cannot guarantee you will not be exposed during NWC in person events. By registering and/or attending an NWC in-person event, you acknowledge the risks. You also acknowledge notice of and agree to follow all facility rules, posted instructions and protocols. By attending an NWC in person event, you acknowledge and agree that you are voluntarily assuming all risks of exposure to COVID-19 and agree to release, waive and discharge NWC, the facility, and all related and affiliated individuals and entities for the event in which you are attending, from all claims directly or indirectly arising from your participation at the event.

Refund Policy

Cancellation must be received by NWC via email.

  • Eight weeks or more before event, you will receive a full refund.
  • Within eight weeks of the event, NWC will hold your payment for use at the same event the following year.
  • Once an event starts, there are no refunds.

If you are sick or diagnosed with COVID-19 at the time of an NWC in-person event, do not attend the event; NWC will hold your payment for use at the same event the following year.

Membership & Sponsorship

Once payment has been received by NWC, there are no refunds for membership or sponsorship.
