Program Confirmation

A confirmation/receipt will be sent to you in the mail once your registration has been processed. If it states “ENROLLED” you are enrolled in the program. If it states “W-List”, you are on the waiting list for the program. You will be notified of waiting lists status changes. We encourage you to place your name on a waiting list. If the program you desire is full, additional sessions will be opened if possible. Please read your receipt carefully as dates, days, times and locations may have changed since the printing of the brochure.

If you did not retain or receive a receipt/confirmation it is your responsibility to contact our Main Office prior to the start of all classes you have registered for. No refunds or credit will be given for lack of notification.

Minimum/Maximum

When you see the words “Min/Max.” under a program it refers to the minimum number of participants needed for the program to run and the maximum number of participants that the program can accommodate.

Registration Deadline

Our programs need to meet the minimum number of enrollments by the registration deadline in order for the program to become active. It is important that you register by the registration deadline that is listed with each program to ensure that you are enrolled in the program, (if space is still available). Nothing kills an activity quicker than late registration. Registering as early as possible will help insure that the activity of your choice is held. After the registration deadline, registration may not be able to be taken. If we do not meet the minimum number of participants the program may be cancelled.

Refund Policy

Individuals submitting a request for a refund for a program will be eligible to receive a refund provided the request meets one of the criteria below:

1. Individual must complete a refund application at the Apollo Recreation Center prior to two classes of the program session.
2. No other refunds will be given after two classes of the program session have expired.

For various one day seminars, trips or special events a refund will be given if the following criterion occurs:

1. Individual must complete a refund application at the Apollo Recreation Center one week prior to the seminar, trip or special event.
2. There is a $50 non-refundable processing fee for Day Camp and Teen Camp
3. A processing fee of $3.00 is deducted from all refunds with the exception of programs cancelled by the Alsip Park District. Individuals enrolled in programs, special events or trips that are cancelled by the Alsip Park District will be given a 100% refund and a processing fee will not be accessed.

Waivers and Release Forms

There is an inherent risk in participating in some recreational activities. In order to continue offering a variety of quality Park District programs, our insurance carrier requires that a waiver and release form be signed prior to participation. If a participant is under 18 years of age, a parent or guardian must sign. A valid signature is required at the time of registration.
