In the event of inclement weather, Powell House will decide if the weekend conference will proceed. Powell House will make the decision by 12 0'clock noon on the Friday that the conference is scheduled to begin. Registrants are advised to telephone Powell House anytime after 12:30; information concerning cancellation will be available on our answering service. If, after 12:30pm, the answering service contains no information concerning the cancellation or re-scheduling, then the conference will proceed as originally planned.
If inclement weather necessitates the cancellation or re-scheduling of a conference, Powell House will make efforts to contact registrants. If a conference needs to be re-scheduled because of inclement weather, all deposits and payments will be transferred to the rescheduled conference. If a conference is cancelled and cannot be re-scheduled within 6 months, deposits and payments will be fully refunded.
