Tips F or REGISTRATION

INFORMATION SAFETY For your safety, credit card numbers should never be disclosed on forms. Registration staff will contact you when your form is received for payment. RESIDENCYSTATUS All newly created households entered in our system are audited within 48 hours for potential duplicate accounts and for residency status in the Downers Grove Park District. If your address falls within park district boundaries and we cannot verify your ownership or residency at that address, you will be contacted to provide proof of residency. Your account will be changed to a non- resident status until your residency can be established. If your Downers Grove address does not pay taxes into the Downers Grove Park District you are considered as a non-resident. WAITLISTS Most programs will have a limited number of waitlist spots available once a program becomes full. When registering online and the class reads as “FULL,” this means the maximum number of waitlisted spots available for that program has been met. We will only reach out to the waitlist if spots become available in the program. AGE REQUIREMENTS Appropriate age levels are established to ensure a rewarding experience for all. Those who do not meet the age criteria of a class may be considered on a case-by-case basis beginning the first day of non- resident registration. Age exception requests can be submitted through our online form at dgparks.org/ registration-tips. Age exceptions will not be considered for Lincoln Learning Preschool students who must be age appropriate by Sept. 1.
