Deferral Policy
Across the Lake Swim, in consultation with local authorities and safety officials, reserves the right to cancel any event for emergency reasons such as, but not limited to, inclement weather, wildfires, or other safety threats. If such emergency conditions force cancellation, refunds cannot be provided since event funds are committed well in advance of race day.
If an event is cancelled due to circumstances beyond reasonable control, including acts of God, government actions, epidemics, quarantines, riots, fires, smoke, labour disputes, power or utility outages, earthquakes, floods, or other disasters (collectively, “Force Majeure Events”), the following will apply depending on the date of cancellation:
If cancellation is announced more than one month prior to the scheduled event date:
• A 75% Deferral Discount toward one of the next Across the Lake Swim events.
If cancellation is announced within one month of the scheduled event date:
• A 25% Deferral Discount toward one of the next three Across the Lake Swim events.
Refunds are not available under any circumstances, as per the stated Refund Policy.
