Cancellation Policy

We understand that unexpected circumstances can arise. To ensure a smooth process for all participants, we ask that all cancellation requests be submitted in writing via email to nada@nuncenter.com.

The following policy outlines the portion of the fee that will be retained based on when we receive your written cancellation notice:

Date Written Cancellation is Received Fee Retained (Per Person)

Between July 4 – November 3, 2026 50% of the full fee will be retained
