Dragon OCR events are rain or shine. In the event of extreme, severe, or dangerous weather on the event day (lightning, high wind, etc.) Please check our website about any potential changes to the event schedule. On event day the safety of our race participants, spectators, volunteers and staff is vital. If inclement weather occurs the Race Director may either postpone or cancel the event to protect the safety of all in attendance. If this should occur, most likely we will re-schedule the event for the following weekend or a future date.
Cancellation :
No Refunds for any reason including in the Event of Inclement Weather
In the event that inclement weather conditions should require cancellation of the race before it is to start or early termination after it has started because of safety concerns, I understand that the race maybe rescheduled to a future date. Depending on severity of the storm and/or damage to any obstacles, we may hold the event the following day or weekend. I also understand and agree that my entry fee WILL NOT be refunded.
