This form tells us everything we need to know about your child’s needs so we know how to best support them and create a positive and quality experience.

During this process, you will be asked to identify your preferred weeks of program.

Step 2 Registration

A Recreation Staff will contact you to schedule your child into a program based on the information submitted on the intake form.
