HELPFUL HINTS:
- Practice logging in prior to Saturday, March 14 if you plan on registering online. Make sure your username and password both work.
- Verify that your household is accurate and ready to go by calling your facility. All your children in your household and your contact information needs to be correct for a quick and smooth registration.
- Pick out what camps/clinics/sessions you want for each child ahead of time to quicken the process. Have your payment (check, Visa, MC, money order) ready. Also, know your child’s shirt size and who can/cannot pick them up from camp, as these are questions that will be asked.
The more prepared you are, the easier the process will be for everyone!
