Kay Mayor 3 Important Information Registration and Refunds The Registration and KNOW refund policies are both designed to offer a black and white process that you, our customers, and our staff can understand and enforce. Both policies were designed to discourage refunds and the time lost in processing them. The KNOW refund policy will be strictly enforced. Please register very carefully. Resident Registration schedule: All Wey-Fun, Wey-Fun@Esker, Great Esker, Sprouts, Lane Beach, Exceptional and Vendored (Science, Art, Drama and Sports) will begin February 27th. Pond Meadow and Junior Police Academy registration information will be announced in our April 4th flyer. To register in person between February 27th and March 12th residents must present a utility bill or a picture ID with the home address for each family they are registering. Registration opens to everyone on March 13th. Resident/Non-resident Registration Policy Weymouth residents only may register from February 27th through March 11, 2014 - online and in person. Please respect this policy. Non-Weymouth residents who register between these dates will be removed. The residency / contact information you enter is critical in dealing with emergencies your child may experience during the programs. Your address must also match your credit card’s information or your card will be rejected. Registration in 4D: Notice how important May 1st and June 1st are Decide what you want to register for – Due to the KNOW refund policy (see next page) you should consider all other plans you have or may make throughout the summer. This policy is black and white! Discounts – Considerable discounts are offered on our programs and some vendored programs – through May 1st. The price differences and the KNOW refund policy are our effort to encourage early registration so we can plan better and keep prices as low as possible. Help us plan a better program and save money – register early! Discounts do not apply to the required t-shirts and IDs. Deposit – Every registration through May 1st requires a deposit. The deposits vary and hold your spot at the discounted price (if there is one). All registrations after May 1st require full payment. Deadline - All balances must be paid by June 1st or the registration will be cancelled – minus the 20% deposit. Full payment triggers the no refund policy – you own the seat. See the KNOW refund policy on the next page. Payments: online must be by credit card (Mastercard, VISA, Discover or American Express) or account credit; at our office by cash, check, credit or debit card. Drop-off registrations – can be turned in from February 27th – March 12th and will be processed according to the registration schedule – all registrations require a non-refundable deposit of 20%. Friends can drop-off fully completed and signed registration forms with proof of residency for each family. How to Register Online We continue to encourage online registration at www.weymouth.ma.us/rec. It is the easiest and most convenient method for you, our customer, and us. If you would like further instruction on how to register online – please see our web-page – www.weymouth.ma.us/rec If you have a Household Credit, you can apply it to your online order. Choose your programs, click on “Check Out,” then “Pay Online,” and an overview of your cart items will appear. Your account credit will be listed about half-way down this page, in orange. Choose “Apply Credit” and follow the prompts. 4 The latest - KNOW Refund, Cancellation and Transfer Policy: Please plan carefully before registering. Any time spent processing refunds is time we cannot commit to creating or running programs! Made a mistake? Call us right away and we will work it out. • Each registration requires a non-refundable deposit - roughly 20%. • If Weymouth Recreation must cancel a program, or you cancel prior to full payment, you will receive a full refund – minus your deposit. Do not pay in full until your summer schedule is set! • Refunds are not given for disciplinary dismissal*, failure to attend, absence, injury or sick days. • Refunds will be by Town of Weymouth check for payments by cash or check or by crediting the credit card you used during registration. Please allow four weeks for check processing. • Transfers & Cancellations - Once registered – you own the seat. There are no transfers or cancellations. Need to cancel? – The sooner you let us know the better your chances we can sell your seat to someone else. There are no guarantees that we will be able to sell your seat. If we can - we will credit your account. • Chargebacks - We will fight all chargebacks – we are happy to resolve legitimate concerns - double billed, overpaid or cancelled classes. This is not a way around the KNOW refund policy. *Disciplinary Policy: Any participant who detracts from the enjoyment of another participant or the duties of the staff will be warned, once, and the incident will be reported to the parent that day. The participant will be removed if there is another incident that week. Two removals will result in a ban from all programs for the season. Refunds will not be given for a participant removed from a program for disciplinary reasons. Where Addressesis tomy our best recreation program? sites.

The Boston Breakers find themselves right in the mix. The longest-running professional women’s soccer team in U.S. history, the Breakers have roots dating back more than a decade. The franchise was established in 2000, debuting in the Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA) in 2001. The Breakers competed for three seasons in WUSA before the league folded. When Women’s Professional Soccer (WPS) was formed in the fall of 2007, the Breakers joined the league and began play when WPS officially launched its first season in 2009. The Breakers played three seasons in WPS (2009-2011) before the league suspended operations in 2011. In their three WPS seasons, the Breakers reached the playoffs twice. In 2012, the Breakers played in the eight-team WPSL Elite League, which featured eight teams from the Midwest and up and down the East Coast. The Breakers won the regular season championship with an 11-3 record.

  • The Power of Philanthropy John G
    UMASS MEDICINE Annual Report of Donors 2011 the power of philanthropy John G. O’Brien (left) and Michael F. Collins, MD the power of leadership It is our pleasure to present this Annual Report of Donors for the 2011 fiscal year. As with past editions, this publication serves to celebrate the generosity of our donors, as well as showcase the very real impact of their contributions for, and partnership with, UMass Medical School and UMass Memorial Health Care. As you will see in the dynamic stories presented within these pages, commitments of private funds are vital to the advancement of medical knowledge and education, and the implementation of new methods of health care delivery at our academic health sciences center. Those advancements are what enable us to fulfill our critical and joint mission of advancing the health and well-being of the people in the commonwealth and the world. The formula for our future success, and that of our entire academic health sciences center, relies on a number of components. Key among those are philanthropy and, more specifically, our generous advocates whose steadfast financial support propels us forward in the fulfillment of our mission. As public funds become less plentiful, charitable donations become even more essential to our future. The generosity demonstrated by so many clearly signifies a powerful commitment to our work and the communities we serve. It also signifies that philanthropy has the power to inspire future health care practitioners, encourage researchers, enhance care and support those in need. We are extremely grateful that the philanthropic activities of so many include the important work being conducted here, and we feel privileged to acknowledge the names of those individuals and organizations who provided financial support to UMass Medical School and UMass Memorial Health Care in the last fiscal year.
