The Haw River Ballroom is treating our
SCA Ball the way it would any other dance band. They are handling sound,
lighting, and tickets. Because the SCA is not in charge of the gate, this is technically a Demo, not an Event. There is no non-member surcharge. Everybody gets the member price.
VenuePilot doesn't issue refunds. Event Refunds shall be provided as follows: i. The Reservationist must receive refund requests in writing
(email is acceptable) no later than five (5) business
days after the event. ii. All refunds shall be paid by
check from the Buckston-on-Eno checking account.
iii. No refund shall be issued until the event books
have been closed and all reservation checks have
cleared. iv. No refund shall be issued if the event has
not made a profit. This policy may be waived by
unanimous vote of the Canton business meeting in
cases of event cancellation or other extreme
circumstances, provided that such action does not
put the Canton in financial jeopardy.
