Cancellations

As a matter of courtesy, Members are asked to notify the Whiff of any cancellation at latest by 4PM on the Thursday preceding an event.

If you and/or your guest can not attend, please use the pingg webpage to change your event response first.  A link to the Event’s webpage can be found in the pingg event emails sent to you – invitation, confirmation note or reminder notes.

Cancellations after 4PM on the Thursday preceding an event will be considered ‘No Shows’.  Please also send an email regarding your late cancellation to treasurer@whiff-of-grape.ca.  Unfortunately, the Whiff must recover from Members, Associates, Alumnus or Out-of-Town Members whatever the hosting venue charges us for the No Shows.  N.B., although Full Members have effectively prepaid, please remember that a notice of a cancellation at any time will possibly save the Whiff unnecessary expense and help keep annual dues lower in the future.

Late cancellation charges: Members may be charged for late cancellations in the event that the Whiff incurs costs associated with the late cancellation. If a late cancellation charge is to be passed on to a member, the Chairman will contact the offending member prior to the charge being levied.

The RCYC requires our attendance commitment on Thursday at 4pm. Cancellations after this time may incur a penalty.
