Activity Guide Summer 2026 - WEB

Page 1


This summer, we invite you to color outside the lines. In recreation, we know that some of the best moments happen when we step beyond the expected—when we try something new, get a little messy, and embrace creativity in all its forms. Whether it’s exploring a new class, joining a program for the first time, or simply spending more time outdoors, summer is the perfect season to break routine and discover what inspires you.

Our Recreation, Arts & Community Services team has created a vibrant lineup of activities designed to spark imagination, build connections, and bring our community together. From art and enrichment programs to camps, events, and outdoor adventures, there’s something for everyone—no matter your age or interest.

So, this season, we encourage you to take a chance, be bold, and maybe even surprise yourself. After all, the most memorable experiences don’t always stay inside the lines.

We look forward to seeing you out there enjoying a colorful and active summer.

The Town’s first permanent art project, Acorns of the Old Oak, has arrived! Ten bronze acorns, created by artist Chad La Fever, have been installed throughout Downtown Danville. We invite you to take a stroll and be on the lookout for the acorns. Be sure to look up high and down low!

Visit danville.ca.gov/acorns for more information on acorn updates and programming.

When registration falls below the minimum enrollment required, it may be necessary to cancel a class or program. At the time of cancellation, the Town will initiate a full refund-minus transaction fee. Check refunds may take 4–6 weeks.

Photo/Video Liability Disclosure

Photographs and video may be taken of participants during a class or program, and these photographs and video may be used for Town of Danville publicity purposes.

Whenever possible, make-ups will be given on those occasions when inclement weather or instructor illness requires that a class be cancelled. See instructor at next scheduled meeting for makeup date. No refunds (whole or partial) can be given for classes missed by the student.

Waitlists will be created once a class has reached maximum enrollment. If space becomes available, you will be contacted.

Withdrawals (Credits/Refunds)

Requests for withdrawal will be honored if requested no later than five business days prior to the first day of the activity. There will be a $15 withdrawal fee assessed for each activity.

A $20 processing fee will be charged for processing refunds made by check. We do not provide cash refunds.

Requests made less than five business days prior to the first day of the activity must be submitted using the online withdrawal form and will be considered on an individual basis. If withdrawal request is approved, there will be a $15 withdrawal fee assessed for each activity.

Residency Status Clarification

Those living outside the Danville Town limits include residents of the communities of Alamo and Diablo, Alamo Creek, Bettencourt Ranch, Blackhawk, Bryan Ranch, Monterosso, Shadow Creek and Whitegate housing developments.

The program and facility fees cover a large portion of the actual costs, though Town of Danville residents also partially support the classes, events and facilities through their property tax assessments. Because of this, those program participants and individuals reserving Town facilities who live outside of Danville pay an additional non-resident charge. If you have any questions about this information, call 925-314-3400.

Special Notice to Alamo Residents: All Alamo residents are eligible to register for Town-sponsored programs scheduled at Hap Magee Ranch Park during the resident registration period.
