1. I want to register my children for recreation programs. (Parks, Recreation & Facilities Management - General)
If you have not previously registered with the Parks and Recreation Department, you can do this by completing a Household Information Form. This form along with a Registration Form are also available in the City Guide. The Household Information Form must be completed in order to include your family information into our online registration database. Registration/Household Information forms can also be obtained at our office during regular business hours (Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.)
If you are ready to register online now, click here!
2. I want to get my child on a youth sports team. (Parks, Recreation & Facilities Management - General)
Go to the Youth Sports page under Recreation and click on the appropriate form.
Individuals wishing to play youth sports need to fill out an individual player registration form for each sport they wish to participate in.
3. I want to find out why I am considered a non-resident when I have an Appleton mailing address. (Parks, Recreation & Facilities Management - General)
A resident IS ANY PERSON WHO LIVES WITHIN THE CORPORATE CITY LIMITS of Appleton. This is not to be confused with being an Appleton Area School District resident. City and School District boundaries are not the same. A NON-RESIDENT is anyone who does not reside within the corporate City limits of Appleton. The Town of Grand Chute, Town of Menasha, Darboy, Greenville, Harrison, etc. are NOT within the corporate City limits. Appleton mailing addresses do not automatically mean that you are a corporate City resident.
4. I want to see what swim lesson class I should register my child for when he/she has had lessons elsewhere. (Parks, Recreation & Facilities Management - General)
If you wish to register your child for swim lessons but are unsure of what level to put your child in, pick up a 2011 Summer/Fall City Guide from the Parks and Recreation Department Office, or simply click here. In the Aquatics section of the City Guide, you will find descriptions for each swim lesson level that the Parks and Recreation Department offers. When you find a level that fits your child's ability, fill out a Registration Form. If you are still unsure what class to sign your child up for, sign them up for the class you think best suits their abilities. During the first day of class, talk to the Director of Instruction at the pool and have them test your child for the appropriate level placement. If you have any information such as a skills check off card or any proof of previous lesson experience that could help us place your child, please show this to the Director of Instruction on the first day of lessons.
