Parties & Events Policies - BGC South East

All bookings should be completed via the Rec Desk online booking system.
There will be a $50 non-refundable deposit at the time of booking.

If you cancel your party or event with a minimum of 10 business days notice, we can offer a refund in the form of a cheque minus a $50 non-refundable deposit fee or we can refund the full amount as a credit on your account that can be used for any BGC South East programs within our facilities for up to a year. We do not offer refunds for cancellations with less than 10 business days notice.
For any emergency cancellations on the day of the event due to an illness or family emergency, we ask that you please notify us 2 hours prior to the reservation, by calling 613-507-3306 ext 100 and emailing Sydney@bgcsoutheast.ca to discuss your options for refunds or rescheduling.
Pool Fouling: We understand that accidents happen. However, in the case of a pool fouling normal chlorine levels will not properly disinfect a pool fouled by vomit or fecal matter. Therefore, when a formed stool is found in the pool, our facility must shut down the pool for a minimum of 1 hour or until our chemical levels are within range. When Diarrhea or vomit is found in the pool, we must close the pool for a minimum of 20 hours. Unfortunately, this can result in pool bookings being canceled unexpectedly and with very little notice. In such an occurrence, we would be happy to reschedule your booking, offer another available activity, or provide a full refund.
