Booking Terms & Conditions and Activity Waiver & Release
Our mission is to provide the most welcoming, fun, and comprehensive courses available – but before we get to the fun part we have to review information about your purchase.

IN CONSIDERATION OF the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:
BOOKING: Completing a booking at rangearts.ca or by email with Range Arts results in a hold being placed on a seat for you at an event to be held by Range Arts at the particular date, time, and place you selected.
BOOKING CONFIRMATION AND PROCESSING: Your booking is confirmed when Range Arts sends you a confirmation in the form of a confirmation page or email (“Booking Confirmation”). If you do not receive a Booking Confirmation after booking, or if you experience an error message or service interruption after submitting payment information, it is your responsibility to confirm with Range Arts by email (https://rangearts.ca/contact) whether or not your booking has been placed. Only you may be aware of any problems that may occur during the booking process. We will not be responsible for losses (monetary or otherwise) if you assume that a booking was placed or not placed because you failed to receive confirmation from us. An electronic payment receipt is also not a Booking Confirmation and is not to be interpreted as such.
HOLD ON SEAT: The seat you booked for a particular date, time, and place will be held for you by Range Arts unless otherwise instructed (by rescheduling or cancelling). Each event has a limited capacity due to Federal and/or Provincial regulations and/or Range Arts policies (meaning each seat is valuable to Range Arts) and it is your responsibility to ensure you make use of the seat you have booked. If you opt not to use your seat it will not be grounds for credit, refund, or forgiveness of any amount owing.
AMOUNT OWING: If Range Arts does not charge you the full purchase price for your seat plus relevant taxes (as described on rangearts.ca as the course fee, the price, the cost) upon completing your booking the balance remaining is thereafter immediately an amount owing to Range Arts.
SETTLING THE AMOUNT OWING: Range Arts reserves the right to settle the amount owing anytime by charging the credit card you validated at the time of booking, however standard practice is to settle the amount owing at the start of the event (so that you may choose alternate payment method in person). At the time of settling the amount owing any deposits you may have paid, credits you may have with Range Arts, or discounts you may be eligible for will be applied to the amount owing.
FULL PAYMENT REQUIRED FOR QUALIFICATION: In the rare event you are allowed to attend the event without having paid in full your course qualifications will not be processed until the amount owing is settled.
NOT PRESENT AT THE EVENT (NO-SHOWS): If you are not present at the date and time of the event (also called “No-Shows”) Range Arts settles your amount owing for the event. Not being present to use the seat you have booked is not grounds for a refund or credit.
ACCEPTABLE FORMS OF PAYMENT: Range Arts accepts most major credit cards online. In person Range Arts accepts most major credit cards and debit cards but does not accept or handle cash.
NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSITS: Certain bookings require payment of non-refundable deposits at the time of booking, which are applied to the amount owing for the related booking when the amount owing is settled, and are non-refundable. Non-refundable means they are forfeit and lost if the booking is cancelled or if the booking is rescheduled outside of the “Allowable Rescheduling Period”.
ALLOWABLE RESCHEDULING PERIOD: A booking can be rescheduled up to 5 calendar days before the date and time of the booking without any impact to deposits or credits by following the links at the bottom of your booking confirmation email or by contacting Range Arts, however discounts may not apply after rescheduling.

Upon receiving notification from you of the cancellation Range Arts will release the hold on your seat and forgive the amount owing less any deposits you have paid (non-refundable deposits already paid are lost and forfeit upon cancellation).
ADMINISTRATIVE FEES: In the rare circumstance Range Arts elects to refund a non-refundable deposit there will be an administrative fee of $15 per refund.
REMINDERS: Range Arts will send booking confirmation and booking reminder communications by email to the email address you provided at the time of booking but bears no responsibility if you do not receive or read these reminders.

RULES: There are easy-to-follow rules set by Range Arts, third party organizations, and your instructor, which apply throughout the event (course).
