Register Early
Often times participants will wait until the last minute to register for a program. Disappointment occurs because a program has been filled or possibly cancelled due to low enrollment. Ensure yourself a spot and help keep our programs running by registering early.
 
Class Cancellations
Every effort is made to avoid canceling classes. However, a minimum number of participants must be registered. Notification of class cancellation may be made with as little as 24-hour notice. In cases where a program is canceled, you will be notified before the start of the program and a full refund will be issued.
 
Transfer Policy

  1. All transfer requests will be honored if there are openings in the class requesting to be transferred to and the participant is the appropriate age for the program.

  2. If additional payment is due, this must be made at the time of the transfer request.

 
Refund Policy
The Worth Park District is committed to providing the highest quality recreation activities, events, and programs. If a person is not completely satisfied with a program or service due to circumstances under the Park District’s control, the Worth Park District will arrange for the person to repeat the class at no charge, use the fee for another class during the same season, or receive a refund.
 
A Refund Will Be Granted if . . .

  1. If a participant is dissatisfied with a Worth Park District class, program or activity due to circumstances under the Park District’s control. Refund requests must be made prior to the midpoint of the class, program or activity and may be subject to direct program costs deducted from the refund amount (ie. t-shirts, uniforms, trophies, etc.)

  2. If the refund is initiated by the Worth Park District (i.e. cancelled class, low enrollment).

  3. For injury or illness with a doctor’s note (once a program has begun, only a prorated fee for classes met will be charged).

  4. On Trips or Shows if the seat can be resold or if the Worth Park District cancels the trip or show.

 
All Other Refunds (unless otherwise noted)

  1. Refunds will be issued prior to the start of a program if the program enrollment is greater than the minimum, minus the cost of supplies (if applicable).

  2. After the start of the program, no refund will be issued except for illness/injury accompanied by a doctor’s note.

  3. Refunds will not be granted for the following: schedule conflicts, vacations, special events, tickets, coupons, field reservations, facility rental fees and other reasons beyond the Park District’s control.

 
To request a refund on a program, a Refund Request Form must be completed and submitted at the Park District Registration Office, 11500 S. Beloit Ave., Worth.

Service Charge Policy

All refunds issued which are not results of a Park District cancellation will be assessed a service charge. The service charge for programs with fees of $10 or more will be $5; programs with fees less than $10 will be charged 50% of the program fee.
