You will be notified, your payment will be returned, and we will contact you if a space becomes available.

Eligibility

Where grade requirements are specified, eligibility is as of September 2008 unless otherwise noted. All Township residents may participate. Nonresident registrations will be accepted where noted.

Fees

All recreation programs conducted by the Upper St. Clair Department of Recreation and Leisure Services have been designed to be self-sustaining. Most programs in past years have proved successful in generating enough revenue through fees to cover costs. However, fees are evaluated periodically and are subject to change so that recreation programming may continue to be self-sustaining. In general, any additional revenues obtained from increased fees compensate for increasing program expenses.

Photo ID Card

Programs requiring a Photo I.D. cards are noted. Pictures will be taken for registered participants at the Recreation Department during regular business hours or during the special evening office hours as noted above. The cost of the Photo ID card is included in the price of the program. However,there is a three dollar ($3.00) charge to replace a lost photo ID card.

Refunds

All refunds will be made according to the following guidelines:

1. Cancellations must be received prior to the first meeting day of any program unless otherwise noted. No refunds will be issued after the second meeting day for any reason.
2. Due to ordering requirements, specialty programs may have specific refund dates listed. No refunds will be given after these specified dates.
3. A $5.00 administrative charge will be deducted from all refunds. No cash refunds will be given. Please allow 4 - 5 weeks for refund checks to be processed.
4. Participants in any program cancelled by the Recreation Department will receive full or prorated refunds calculated on total program meetings.
