For example, if you registered for an event, then changed your mind about attending, you may contact the Field Trip Coordinator (fieldtrips@villagehome.org) to make a cancellation request. If we are able to honor the request, we will. If not, you will still be responsible for payment. All cancellation requests are subject to approval by the Field Trip Coordinator. Refunds will be made to all parties if Village Home cancels the event.
