Registration and payment of the membership fee

Payment of this amount becomes compulsory once you have registered for membership. Membership is valid for 1 year, starting on the day the payment is received.

Non-payment of the membership fee does not constitute cancellation of membership

Refunds are possible upon written and reasonable request.

Administration

For organisational reasons, we reserve the right to postpone, combine or relocate the venue of our activities and events.

Number of participants and conditions

In order to present our activities and events under the best possible conditions, they are limited to a minimum and maximum number of participants. Spaces are filled on a "first come first served" basis (and on condition of payment by the due date when a payment is required).

Transport to the activities and events are the responsibility of the parents. Elargis tes Horizons will not provide any transport to the venues.

Exclusion 

Girls and parents should be prepared to follow the instructions of the accompanying adults.
Elargis tes Horizons reserves the right to exclude any participant from an activity or an event for a justified reason such as non-payment of the fees or in serious cases of inappropriate behavior (e.g. libel, harassment, wilful damage to property etc.).
If you are excluded from an activity or an event, you are liable for the entire membership fee – i.e. you would be entitled to neither a full nor a partial refund.

Non attendance

Unattended activities or events cannot be repeated or refunded.

Liability and insurance

Elargis tes Horizons accepts no liability for any damages arising during or from any activity or event organised by the association. Parents are therefore personally responsible for ensuring their daughters adequate insurance cover. Elargis tes Horizons cannot be held liable for theft or loss of property.
