Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a membership fee to join this group?
-There is no membership fee, all of our events are open to any women who would like to participate in them. We have events for many different interests, with different price points to be inclusive as everyone needs “me time”!

How do I register/pay?
-Once you’ve found an event that you would like to participate in simply complete the two simple steps to registration. Please note, you will not be registered in an event until both steps have been completed and payment is received.
STEP ONE: REGISTRATION: Complete the registration form for the event, it is important to include a current e-mail address as this will be our main way of contacting you and providing any additional necessary details. When you’ve completed the form hit the “SUBMIT” button to take you to step two.
STEP TWO: PAYMENT: You should now be at a screen with a drop down box. Select the event you wish to pay for and click “Pay Now”. This will take you to the paypal website where you have the option of paying by credit card, bank account or from a balance in your paypal account.

I would like to give a night out as a gift, how do I do this?
-A Gift Certificate is a great gift idea for a night out, or weekend away for a special woman in your life. By the middle of April you will have the option to purchase Gift Certificates online through our website. In the meantime feel free to register and pay for an event, and in the “Questions/Comment” box on the registration form please let us know that it is a gift, if it is a surprise and your contact information. If it is for a special celebration we would be happy to make it extra special for them.

How often do you post new events?
-New events are constantly being added as they are organized. If you would like e-mail notification when new events are posted please contact us, otherwise check back regularly so you don’t miss out on the events that book up quickly.

I don’t drive, how do I get to an event?
-It is your responsibility to arrange transportation to and from the events. A number of participants don’t drive, and have found that carpooling with a friend or taking transit are great options as most of our events are located on main roads. For public transit information in Calgary please head to http://www.calgarytransit.com/
If an event is out of town on occasion we do arrange for carpooling from a central meeting location.

How old are the women who participate in the events?
-All women over the age of 18 are welcome at any event (if you wish to bring someone younger to a specific event please contact us). The average age range seems to be between 25-50 years old but we’ve had younger participants, as well as older. On a number of occasions, Mothers or Grandmas have come along for the fun and are very welcome!
There are some activities that require a higher level of fitness (such as Canoeing, Hula Hooping, Wall climbing etc.) in these cases please register only if you feel comfortable with your own ability to enjoy the activity without injury.

What is your cancellation Policy?
-Our cancellation policy is addressed in our Terms and Conditions as follows:
1) Refunds will not be given to those withdrawing after registration has been completed for a GirlTalk event (contact us if special circumstances apply). Should you need to withdraw from an event you will be required to find a participant to take your place, or forfeit your full payment (please contact us if special circumstances apply, this remains at the full discretion of GirlTalk and will be subject to a $10 administration fee).
2) GirlTalk events will provide a full refund should a scheduled event be moved or canceled.
3) Payment must be made at the time of registration or your placement will be given up to the next interested registrant.

I would like help planning a Stagette, can you help?
-Feel free to contact us should you require assistance in planning events or fundraisers, we look at each situation individually and come up with a plan/cost that works for all parties involved.

I have some ideas, how do I share them?
-We are always looking for new ideas, so if you come across something that would make a fun event for Ladies, or offer a service that we may be interested in please contact us by e-mail.

As always, should you have any other questions or feedback please e-mail us at info@girltalkevents.com, we love to hear from you!
