Please read the following terms carefully.
All Trips are family-friendly. No smoking allowed on the bus (Federal Law)
Please do not drink alcohol on the bus. Responsible consumption at baseball games and in your hotel room, no problem.
What about rainouts? Since we can’t predict in advance whether a game will be played, (and all Major League Teams do not have the same refund policy) refunds will only be given if a game is entirely rained out and rescheduled for another date, and if the ball team grants a refund for the missed game. In those cases, the ticket cost is the only part of the trip which would be refunded. Transportation and lodging costs will not be refunded. Games are rarely delayed or cancelled in advance, so once the trip begins we’re committed to go. The percentage of games actually cancelled by weather is actually quite low. The group will stay through the conclusion of delayed or interrupted games, provided the delay doesn’t cause an interruption to the next scheduled game on the trip. If you decide not to go on a particular trip because you think it might rain, there will be no refund.
Deposits to hold seats on the trips will be 75 dollars per person and are nonrefundable. Seats are limited and held with deposit only and are first-come, first-served. Seats on one-day trips to Braves Games in Atlanta do not require deposits, but must be paid in full no earlier than 90 days before the scheduled trip. These payments are also nonrefundable.
Deposits will only be refunded if a particular trip is cancelled. You would have the option of applying your deposit to one of the other trips. Each trip will be referred to by number.
