Answers

1. How do I search for programs?

   Once logged in, choose the 'Schedule' tab to browse program categories to find what you're looking for. Note: While you can browse, programs will not be available for purchase until the registration start date. If you prefer, you can search for a specific program code, provided in the Community Activity & Service Guide, or search by name, category or location.

2. What do I need to register online?

   A valid email address and contact name is required to create an online account. Once your account has been created, you will need a credit card to pay for registrations online.
   
   If you don't have an email address, you cannot set up an online Recreation account and have access to online registration. You can still browse through Recreation programs and check for program availability. However, you will not be able to register or waitlist for a program online. Instead, use an alternate method of registration such as by mail or in person (see webpage for details).

3. How do I add family members to my Recreation account?

   Visit the Program Registration webpage on the Town of Halton Hills website and click on the orange Create Account button. After logging in, click on the Add Members button at the top of the page and filling out the appropriate information.

4. I found the program I like - why can't I add it to my cart and check out?

   This feature will be available at the registration start date - 7:00 a.m. on Wednesday, September 12th. Until that time, you will be able to browse but you won't be able to select or add programs to your cart.

5. Can I cancel once I have registered for a program?

   If you have not paid yet, programs can be removed from your cart or you can clear your whole cart. However, once your registration payment transaction has been completed in checkout, you cannot cancel out of a program online. All cancellations must be processed through the Program Information Hotline at 905-873-2601, ext. 2275.
   
   Withdrawals and refunds
   If a participant withdraws from a program at least 2 business days (5 business days for March Break camps) prior to the first day of the program, a refund less a $9.93 administrative fee (subject to change) will be issued. Sorry, there is no reimbursement once the program has started. If the program is cancelled by Recreation and Parks, you will receive a full refund. Please allow two weeks for processing.
   
   Changes and Cancellations
   Even though you are provided with a program confirmation, insufficient registration may still cause a program to be cancelled. We reserve the right to cancel or alter any class time, fee, instructor or location if needed. Every effort will be made to avoid these changes or to reschedule make up classes when possible.

6. Will programs be cancelled for inclement weather?

   In rare cases, poor weather conditions or power outages may require a facility closure and program cancellations. If there is inclement weather, a notice will be posted at the top of the halton hills website homepage at www.haltonhills.ca. Also, follow us on Twitter @_HaltonHills or call the town at 905-873-2601 ext. 2708 or 2275. Decisions will be made for daytime programs by 8:45 a.m., and evening programs by 2:00 p.m.
