The satisfaction guarantee is based on keeping the District’s promise to provide quality parks, recreation programs and leisure services. If participants are not satisfied with the recreational program, event or activity the District provides due to:

• or the skill level is not appropriate for the participant

The district will arrange for participants to:

• repeat the class at no charge,
• receive full credit that can be applied to any other program,
• or receive a refund

Satisfaction guarantee requests can be made in person, by calling, writing, or emailing the district. Memberships and league fees are pro-rated.

• A processing fee will be charged for all refund requests.
• No refunds are offered after the first class unless the request falls within the Satisfaction Guarantee Policy as redefined or there is a medical reason with a doctor’s note.
• Medical reason refunds be prorated accordingly.
• All Satisfaction Guarantee refunds be 100% and without processing fees.

Our satisfaction guarantee is our promise to provide quality parks, facilities, recreation programs and leisure services that meet the expectations of our customers. If you are not satisfied with any recreational program HEParks provides due to the quality of instruction, the child’s inability to adapt emotionally to the class, or the inappropriate skill level for the registered participant, a full refund will be processed.

To determine that a class does not meet their satisfaction, participants must attend the first two class sessions, but request a refund and fill out all appropriate paperwork before the third class meeting. No processing fee will apply to refunds issued under the Satisfaction Guarantee Policy. If you are not satisfied, we would appreciate your comments, suggestions, or ideas for improvement. Please look for our customer comment cards at all district facilities.

We appreciate hearing your positive comments, as well as your suggestions for improvement.
