All sales are final. If an event is cancelled or rescheduled by LNC, members who purchased tickets to that event may be offered a refund. Any other refund requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

What is LNC's alcohol policy?

In an effort to ensure the safety and enjoyment of our members at all Club events, it is expected that all Club members and their guests will act responsibly in the consumption of alcohol and will either assign a designated driver or make other transportation arrangements when needed. Each Club member who participates in a Club event does so at his/her own discretion & risk; Larchmont Newcomers Club & its volunteer board will not be held liable for any injuries which may occur as a result of the consumption of alcohol by Club members and guests, and each Club member or guest expressly holds Larchmont Newcomers Club and its board harmless and shall indemnify the Larchmont Newcomers Club and its board from all damages, claims, and expenses of any nature caused as a result of acts by any such Club member or guest.
