Include Payment & Sign Waiver/Release

Please note that you need to include full payment and a signed waiver and release for your form to be processed. Credit card payments require an additional signature to authorize payment. For these reasons, we are unable to accept phone-in registrations.

Register Early

Nothing ruins a good program quicker than everyone waiting until the last minute to register for it. There is a point where if there aren’t enough registrants to hold the program, it is cancelled. Coming in the day of, or the day before the program won’t resurrect it. Please register at least a week early to avoid disappointment.

Waivers

In accordance with the Recreation Department policy, all program participants must sign a hold harmless agreement prior to participation in department sponsored programs. The waivers are on the bottom portion of program registration forms, designated sign-in sheets, and fitness membership applications. These must be signed by the adult participating in an adult program; and by the parent or legal guardian of participant under 18.

Wait List Process

A waitlist is formed when a class reaches participant levels beyond the maximum. The wait list is maintained based on the order we process registrations. Customers will be contacted for confirmation before being added to one of our wait lists (or transferred from a wait list into the desired program) by the front desk or specific program supervisor. Please Note: Before a participant is transferred into a program, all corresponding paperwork and payments are required.

Residency

Not all Roselle residents are Roselle Park District residents. Even though you may have a Roselle address, you may pay taxes to another park district. Therefore, proof of residency is required when registering for programs for the first time. This may be done with a driver’s license, utility bill, (or a mortgage statement for those who are recently moving to the area). Roselle Park District residents support the district through property tax contributions.

We apologize for any errors that may appear in the brochure. For the most updated content please view our brochure online at rparks.org. We thank you for your patience and understanding.

What If I Have A Special Need?

Participants who require special assistance during park district programs should note their needs on the registration form and call (630) 894-4200 to notify the park district.

What About Insurance?

The Roselle Park District does not provide medical coverage for injuries suffered while participating in park district programs, or while using park facilities.
