Enter the Fountains Country Club from Lake Worth Rd, one traffic light west of Jog Rd. After the guard gate, the Club House is on your right at the large bronze and gold sign. Park at any available space.

-The gate at Melaleuca Ln and Jog Rd is for residents only. If your GPS takes you there, continue North on Jog Rd and turn left at Lake Worth Rd.

-If your GPS takes you to the Jog Rd entrance North of Lantana Rd, you can enter there, but it is easier if you continue North on Jog Rd and turn left at Lake Worth Rd. Then turn left at the 1st traffic light.



Refund Policy:
•    Refunds or account credits are available for cancellations received before the registration deadline.
•    Because registrant counts are guaranteed to the venue, no refunds are available after the registration deadline.
•    After the registration deadline, if a registrant notifies LWVPBC of their cancellation, and does not at that time have the name of a specific replacement, if there is a person on the waiting list who pays the event fee for that cancelled spot, the original registrant will receive a credit to their account.

Notice of cancellation may be sent to info@lwvpbc.org or to the event contact(s). If you don't specify the name of a replacement, LWVPBC will try to get a replacement from the waiting list.
