Inclement Weather Cancellations:
Should the weather not be ideal, we will cancel. If we are going to cancel, we will make that call at least an hour before the scheduled time and will contact you via phone and e-mail as soon as we can. Sometimes the weather in South Columbus is not the same as North Columbus, so please plan to come until you hear from us that we’ve cancelled. Please, if the weather is looking iffy, check your e-mail or voicemail to see if you’ve received a notice.
You can always call Emily to confirm at 614-440-5454.
