Dear CUPF Community,
The Office of Community Use of Public Facilities (CUPF) will honor cancellations and provide full refunds for all indoor and outdoor facility use on any date for which a heat warning is in effect. This temporary heat-related cancellation allowance will be in place Wednesday, July 1 through Saturday, July 4, 2026.
All cancellation fees will be waived during this period.
Groups are encouraged to provide as much advance notice as possible by submitting a Reservations Amendment Form.
If a group decides on the day of its scheduled activity to cancel, or if a group arrives at a facility and determines it is too hot to safely hold the activity, they must contact CUPF directly to receive a refund:
- Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. | 🖁240-777-2725
- Evenings and weekends | 🖁240-490-2873
Groups may also reschedule any use canceled under the heat-allowance policy that follows the standard scheduling guidelines, including the required seven-day advance booking.
Thank you for using public facilities for community events and activities!
