Just to make this crystal clear (as some of you have asked)

 By clicking "Register for Event" you acknowledge you are aware that registration fees are non-refundable except if entire event is canceled. Paid registrations are the sole property of the purchaser and are transferable. Once payment is received and processed, you will be sent a confirmation number which must accompany the individual attending the event. Event cancelation will be announced via email and payments will be returned in the method in which they were received.     

Payment for the event is non-refundable.
Pre-Payment for a seat is the only way to reserve a seat.
If event sells out (9 seats remain at time of posting), all walk-ins will be turned away.
