Message from the

General Manager Winter/Spring 2020 The entertainer Mae West said “You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.” Oscar Wilde said “To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.” Livermore Area Recreation and Park District exists to help with the quality of life for the people of this community. Our mission is: To provide the people of the Livermore Area with outstanding recreation programs and a system of parks, trails, recreation areas and facilities that promote enjoyment, lifelong learning and healthy active lifestyles. In short we help make memories and change lives. We are successful when we see the smiles on the faces of the young children proclaiming “I just did the slide by myself” or a parent giving their child its first swim lesson in a supervised parent /child session, or the smiles on the bride and groom who have just declared their vows. There are so many examples we can share with you. Thank you to this community for its support of fellow citizens and their quality of life through the work of LARPD and the LARPD Foundation. Together we are Making Memories and Changing Lives.

The Livermore Area Recreation and Park District has implemented a Yearly Liability Waiver form that will be effective from March 1, 2020 through February 29, 2020. Our new liability waiver will cover all activities, classes, camps and programs that are provided by the Livermore Area Recreation and Park District. Additional program/activity permission slips may be required. One authorized signature from a legal parent/guardian may sign on a minor’s behalf (under 18 years of age). Additional family members who are over the age of 18 will be required to provide their own signature to the form. In person or over the phone registrations will not be accepted unless a Yearly Liability Waiver has been completed with appropriate signatures. The Livermore Area Recreation and Park District accepts online registration through our ActiveNet registration software. Participants are encouraged to register online to avoid the hustle and bustle of over the phone or in-person registrations. Online registrations require an acknowledgment of our electronic Liability Waiver for each registration transaction. Participants will not be allowed to register online, over the phone, or in person without acknowledging our Liability Waiver.

Refund & Transfer Policy Refunds and/or transfers will be granted up to seven (7) business days prior to the first class meeting. Refund and/or transfer requests made less then (7) business days before the first class meeting will not be granted. There is a $12 service charge applied to all refunds initiated by the participant, as well as withholding of any material or class fees paid through LARPD that are associated with the class. Refunds and/or transfers will not be granted 24 hours after the first class meeting unless the request is pertaining to a disability or medical condition. This will be at the discretion of LARPD staff and may require a doctor’s note. LARPD reserves the right to cancel any program, class, activity, camp, or service for any reason; participants will have the opportunity to transfer to a similar program or receive a full refund. A $2 nonrefundable fee will be charged for all online registrations. For any online registration that is cancelled, either initiated by the Livermore Area Recreation and Park District or the participant, the $2 processing fee will be withheld from the refund.
